This is my first song posting and it is a collaboration with Terry Young as a co-write and friends form the Resound 12 Song Challenge as "Ebberstonia" who helped to perform the song. The song was written out of the Resound 12 Song Challenge as a "remake" of the old Rock of Ages. Whilst distinctly different it nods to the original in shape, structure and sentiment. Rock of Ages Rehewn by Stephen Sloss & Terry Young Performed by Ebberstonia With a nod to Hastings & Toplady Keyboard - David Brackenbury Whistle - Cath Butler Guitar, Vocal & Video - Stephen Sloss Bass, Production & Arrangement - Andy Biggs Words & Music © Stephen Sloss / Terry Young (Admin by ChurchSongs.co.uk) 2025 CCLI 7269174

This song draws on different biblical images of ideal times and places: the Peaceable Kingdom (Isaiah 11), the Garden of Eden (Genesis 2) and the new Jerusalem (Revelation 4 & 21). It is written in a Contemporary Christian style perhaps similar to the Rend Collective or Robin Mark. Note that this recording modulates up a semitone for the last verse. This song is included in Then Let Us Sing, a music resource published by the United Church of Canada in 2025. Most pictures in the video are courtesy of www.pexels.com.

In the previous two psalms, God’s people have experienced God’s defense and rescue in the midst of a dangerous journey. Now, viewing the mountains surrounding Jerusalem that provide an extraordinary defense for the city, they see a picture of God’s enduring protection. Confident in God’s love, surrounded by his protection in the midst of evil, we can choose to trust and follow him.

Our lives are full of the labors of home-building: building houses, defending communities, raising children. And yet in all this we are prone to “anxious toil”, an acute awareness that even our best efforts are not sufficient to secure good outcomes. Unless God builds our home, we labor in vain. As Jesus put it: God who cares for each sparrow and lily will surely also guard and help us. In Him we find our deepest assurance of God’s compassionate care for his people.
