Synopsis

Rock of ages is a popular christian hymn written by the reverend augustus toplady in 1763 and first published in the gospel magazine in 1775. Traditionally, it is held that toplady drew his inspiration from an incident in the gorge of burrington combe in the mendip hills in england. Toplady, a preacher in the nearby village of blagdon, was travelling along the gorge when he was caught in a storm. Finding shelter in a gap in the gorge, he was struck by the title and scribbled down the initial lyrics. The fissure that is believed to have sheltered toplady is now marked as the "rock of ages", both on the rock itself and on some maps, and is also reflected in the name of a nearby tea shop. The german translation is called "fels des heils".
