Esgynnodd Crist i ganol nef, Eisteddodd ar Ei orsedd gref, Gorphennodd Ei ddaearol daith - Cyfiawnder wênodd ar Ei waith. Ei aberth mawr, digonol yw Dros holl bechodau dynol ryw; Un offrwm ddug dragwyddol fraint - Perffeithiodd Ei anwylaf saint. Eisteddodd ar ddeheulaw Duw I ddisgwyl am Ei deyrnas wiw - Am Eglwys lân drwy rîn Ei waed, A'i holl elynion wrth Ei draed. O! Dduw, rho inni yn yr ŵyl, Ddyrchafu Crist â sanctaidd hwyl; A'n bywyd fo, fel mawl y nef, Yn fywyd o'i ddyrchafu Ef.T Dennis Jones -1904
Tonau [MH 8888]: |
Christ ascended to the centre of heaven, He sat on His strong throne, He finished His earthly journey - Righteousness smiled upon His work. His great sacrifice, sufficient is For all the sins of human kind; One offering brings an eternal privilege - He perfected His most beloved saints. He sat at the right hand of God To wait for His worthy kingdom - For a holy Church through the virtue of his blood, And all his enemies at His feet. O God, grant us in the festival, To exalt Christ with a holy mood; And our life be, like the praise of heaven, A life of exalting Him.tr. 2016 Richard B Gillion |
