eu parottoi i farw. 2 Tim 14. 6,7,8,18.) Gall angau dorri nghorph i lawr, A dwyn fy enaid fynu'n awr; Pa'm y gohiria f'oriau'n hŵy, Ac na ddoi'm Iechydwriaeth mwy? A nefol arfau'r 'fengyl wiw Ymleddais i ryfeloedd Duw; Cwpleais fy ngyrfa, cedwais y ffydd, A gwobor sicir i mi fydd. Duw yn y nef i'w chadw im', Rhoes goron na ddiflanna ddim; Ar y dydd mawr, yng ngwydd y byd, Fy Mhrynwr ar fy Mhen a'i dyd. Ac nid myfi fy hun s'i gael Gan Frenin gras fath ffafar hael; Ond pawb a'u chwant a'u hiraeth sydd Wel'd ymddangosiad Crist a'i ddydd. Y Iesu, f'Arglwydd, ef a'm dwg Yn ddiogel rhag pob amcan drwg; A cheidw f'enaid, er mor wan, I'w deyrnas nefol happus fan. Duw sy' drag'wyddol gymorth im', Terfysged uffern a'i holl rym; Gogoniant iddo hyd y nen, A mawl di-ddiwedd byth, Amen.tr. Dafydd Jones 1711-77 Hymnau a Chaniadau Ysprydol 1775 [Mesur: MH 8888] |
prepared to die. 2 Tim 14:6,7,8,18.) Death can break my body down, And take my soul up now; Why are my hours delayed any later, And my Salvation not come any more? With the heavenly weapons of the worthy gospel I fought the wars of God; I competed my course, I kept the faith, And a certain prize for me there shall be. God in heaven to save me, Gave a crown that shall not vanish at all; On the great day, in the face of the world, My Redeemer on my head shall put it. And it is not I myself who is to get From the King of grace such generous favour; But all whose desire and whose longing is To see the appearance of Christ and his day. Jesus, my Lord, he shall lead me Safely from every evil purpose; And keep my soul, although so weak, to the kingdom of a heavenly, happy place. God is an eternal help to me, Let hell and all its force be in tumult; Glory to him up to the sky, An endless praise forever, Amen.tr. 2016 Richard B Gillion |
prepared to die, 2 Tim. 4. 6 7 8 18.) [Death may dissolve my body now, And bear my spirit home; Why do my minutes move so slow, Nor my salvation come? With heavenly weapons I have fought The battles of the Lord, Finish'd my course, and kept the faith, And wait the sure reward.] God has laid up in heaven for me A crown which cannot fade; The righteous Judge at that great day Shall place it on my head. Nor hath the King of grace decreed This prize for me alone; But all that love and long to see Th' appearance of his Son. Jesus the Lord shall guard me safe From every ill design; And to his heavenly kingdom keep This feeble soul of mine. God is my everlasting aid And hell shall rage in vain; To him be highest glory paid, And endless praise. - Amen.Isaac Watts 1674-1748 Hymns and Spiritual Songs 1707 Tune [CM 8686]: Pisgah (Scottish tune) |
