Fel y rhed llifogydd mawrion Fel y chwyth yr awel gref, Felly bydded f'ocheneidiau Yn dyrchafu tua'r nef; Gwn, fy Nuw, na elli atal, Gwn na elli roi nacâd O un fendith is y nefoedd Ag sydd imi er iachâd. F'enaid wrth y nef sy'n curo, Yno mae yn pledio'n hy, Ac ni osteg oni chaffo'i Dderbyn gan yr orsedd fry; fel y pura'r stormydd mawrion o bob haint yr awyr las, Felly holl gystuddiau 'mywyd A'm perffeithia ymhob gras.William Williams 1717-91

Like the flow of great streams Like the blowing of a strong breeze, Thus let my sighs be Rising towards the heaven; I know, my God, that thou canst not halt, I know that thou canst not give denial Of one blessing under the heavens Which results in healing for me. My soul which at heaven is knocking, Is pounding importunately, And is not silent unless it succeeds in Receiving from the throne above; As the great storms purify from every disease of the blue sky, Thus all afflictions of my life Perfect me in every grace.tr. 2007 Richard B Gillion |
Like a mighty deluge pouring Let my weary sighing be Like the wind of heaven soaring Ever upward, Lord, to thee; For I know thou naught withholdest Never, Lord, wilt thou refrain From bestowing any blessing Which will serve to heal my pain. Heaven's door my soul is pounding Mercy there it boldly pleads Nor will cease, until thou grant it The acceptance which it needs; As the storm-clouds by their downpour From the air all taint efface So shall these my tribulations Make me perfect in thy grace.M J H Ellis (Monti) used by permission Tune [8787D]: Samma (D Emlyn Evans 1843-1913) |
