Rock-a My Soul in the Bosom of Abraham, Oh, Rock-a my soul! These words from an African-American spiritual bring joy to the heart as they are played and heard. Using a boogie beat in the LH, students will be challenged and excited to play this rollicking music . First written down in the “Slave Songs of the United States” in 1867 by Williams Francis Allen, this song still remains as a testament to the strength of a people in the midst of oppression and their belief that God would hold them fast.
