Fy ngorchwyl yn y byd Yw gogoneddu Duw A gwylio dros fy enaid drud Yn ddiwyd tra bwyf byw. Fe'm galwyd gan fy Nuw I wasanaethu f'oes; Boed im ymroi i'r gwaith, a byw I'r Gŵr fu ar y groes. Rho nerth, O Dduw, bob dydd I rodio ger dy fron, I ddyfal ddilyn llywbrau'r ffydd Wrth deithio'r ddaear hon. Rhof arnat ti fy mhwys Rhag imi wyro o'm lle; Dysg im weddïo a gwylio'n ddwys Nes gorffwys yn y ne'.cyf. William Owen Evans 1864-1936
Tonau [MB 6686]: |
My assignment in the world Is to glorify God And to look after my precious soul Diligently while ever I live. I was called by God To serve my age; May I apply myself to the work, and live To the man who was on the cross. Give strength, O God, every day To walk close to thy breast, Diligently to follow the path of the faith While travelling this earth. I will give to thee my burden Lest I should veer from my place; Teach me to pray and watch intently Until I rest in heaven.tr: 2008 Richard B Gillion |
A charge to keep I have, A God to glorify, A never-dying soul to save, And fit it for the sky. To serve the present age, My calling to fulfill: O may it all my powers engage To do my Master’s will! Arm me with jealous care, As in Thy sight to live; And O Thy servant, Lord, prepare A strict account to give! Help me to watch and pray, And on Thyself rely, Assured, if I my trust betray, I shall for ever die.1762 Charles Wesley 1707-88
