Cydunwn â'n cyfeillion cu Sydd yn mwynhau'r gwobrwyon fry, Ar edyn cariad codwn 'nawr, I'r maith lawenydd uwch y llawr. Cydganed saint y ddaear faith A'r dyrfa lân ar ben eu taith, Can's maent yn un, y meirw a'r byw; Un dorf yw holl was'naethwyr Duw. Un teulu ydym ynddo Ef, Un eglwys fawr trwy'r byd a'r nef, Er bod Iorddonen, oerllyd li', Yn ysgar, enyd, rhyngom ni. Un fyddin hardd, dan D'wysog nen, Yn cadw ei air, a'i adde'n ben: Aeth rhan o'r llu drwy 'r afon fawr - Mae rhan yn myned drwyddi 'nawr.cyf. David Charles 1803-80
Tôn [MH 8888]: Angel's Hymn |
Let us unite with our dear friends Who are enjoying the prizes above, On the wings of love let us rise now, To the vast joy that is above the earth. Let the saints of the vast earth sing together And the holy throng at their journey's end, Since they are one, the dead and the living; One throng are all the servants of God. One family are we in him, One great church throughout the world and heaven, Although the Jordan, a chilly flood, Separates us for a spell. One beautiful army, under the Prince of heaven, Keeping his word, and his promise as chief: Part of the host went through the great river - Part is going through it now.tr. 2023 Richard B Gillion |
Come, let us join our friends above who have obtained the prize, And on the eagle wings of love to joys celestial rise. Let saints on earth unite to sing with those to glory gone, For all the servants of our King in earth and heaven are one. One family we dwell in him, one church above, beneath, Though now divided by the stream, the narrow stream of death; One army of the living God, to his command we bow; Part of his host have crossed the flood, and part are crossing now.Charles Wesley 1707-88 Funeral Hymns 1759
