Am bethau mawrion wnaeth ein Duw 'Rŷm heddyw'n canu clod; A chanu clod wna plant ein plant, Y canmlwydd eto i dd'od. Aeth heibio gant o flwyddau maith, O oes Welseyaeth bêr; Fe glybu llawer llwyth ac iaith Ei haraeth îs y ser. Fel hedyn mwstard lleda'i gwraidd I bedair congol byd; Ac adar nefoedd nythu wnant Yn ei changhenau clyd. Mil miloedd aethant adre'n iach O'i llysoedd ar y llawr; Ac ar eu taith mae eto fyrdd, A welir fel y wawr! O gael cymdeithas gyda hwy, Bendithion fwy-fwy fydd: Llawnderau gwynfyd Eden ardd, Yn hardd Gaersalem sydd. Ymledu wna'r athrawiaeth hon Dros bob-man îs y rhod; A thrwyddi rhoir y byd ar dân Y canmleydd eto i dd'od.John Bryan 1776-1856
Tonau [MC 8686]: |
For great things our God did We are today singing acclaim; And sing acclaim shall our children's children, In the century to come. A hundred long years have gone past, From the sweet age of Wesleyanism; Many tribes and languages hear Its speech below the stars. As a mustard seed spreads its root To four corners of the world; And the birds of heaven make nests In its secure branches. A thousand thousand went home healed From its courts on the earth; And on their journey are yet a myriad, Who are to be seen like the dawn! From getting fellowship with them, There will be more and more blessings; The fulnesses of the blessedness of the garden of Eden, Shall be in beautiful Jerusalem. Spread does this teaching Over every place below the sky; And through it the world shall be set on fire In the century to come.tr. 2021 Richard B Gillion |
