Ein huno wnaed yn Nghrist ein Pen

Blest be the dear uniting love

(Y Saint yn un yn Nghrist)
Ein huno wnaed yn Nghrist ein Pen,
  Tywysog mawr y nef;
Treuliwn ein dyddiau yn y byd
  Yn ol ei 'wyllys Ef.

Os trigwn yn ei gariad cu,
  Yn un mewn hedd dilyth,
Nis gall un groes, nac angau dû,
  Mwy ein gwahanu byth.

O glynwn wrtho,
    glynwn byth,
  Trwy ffydd a chariad gwiw;
Cawn drwyddo dderbyn
    "gras am ras,"
  Nes d'od i deyrnas Dduw.

Yn llon edrychwn at y dydd
  Cawn goncwest ar y bedd;
A chwrdd, heb byth ymadael mwy,
  Yn Nghanaa lawn o hedd.
cyf. John Hughes 1776-1843

Tôn [MC 8686]: Bedford (William Wheale 1696-1727)

(The Saints one in Christ)
We were made one in Christ our Head,
  The great Prince of heaven;
Let us spend our days in the world
  According to his will.

If we die in his dear love,
  One in unfailing love,
Neither cross, nor black death can,
  Ever separate us any more.

O let us stick to him,
    let us stick forever,
  Through faith and worthy love;
We may through him receive
    "grace upon grace,"
  Until coming to the kingdom of God.

Cheerfully let us look towards the day
  When we get victory over the grave;
And meet, without ever leaving any more,
  In Canaan full of peace.
tr. 2020 Richard B Gillion
 
Blest be the dear uniting love
  That will not let us part;
Our bodies may far off remove,
  We still are one in heart.

Partakers of the Saviour's grace,
  The same in mind and heart,
Nor joy, nor grief, nor time, nor place,
  Nor life, nor death can part.

Closer, and closer
    let us cleave
  To His beloved embrace;
Expect His fullness
    to receive,
  And grace to answer grace.

But let us hasten to the day
  Which shall our flesh restore,
When death shall all be done away,
  And bodies part no more!
Charles Wesley 1707-88
