Iesu yw'r enw mawr di-goll, Drwy'r ddaear oll a'r nef; Angylion, dynion, drwg a da, A blyga iddo ef. Yr enw lonna'r enaid gwan, A gŵyd i'r lan ei lef; A hwn yw'r enw mawr a dry Ei uffern ddû yn nef. O! na ddôi holl drigolion byd Ynghyd at Iesu gwiw: Y breichiau a'm cofleidiodd i, Gofleidiai ddynol-ryw. Mynegi ei gyfiawnder drud Fo 'ngwaith mewn byd o boen, A threthu rhin ei gariad cu, Cyhoeddi "Wele'r Oen!" A dedwydd fyddaf yn y glyn, Os caf amdano sôn; Mi waedda'n ŵyneb angau du - "O! wele, wele'r Oen!"cyf. Hymnau (Wesleyaidd) 1876
Tonau [MC 8686]: gwelir: O na dd'oi holl drigolion byd |
Jesus is the great, unfailing name, Throughout all the earth and heaven; Angels, men, evil and good, Shall bow to him. The most cheerful name of the weak soul, Who lifts up his cry; And this is the great name which will turn His black hell into heaven. O that all the inhabitants of the world would come Together to worthy Jesus! The arms which enfold me, Would enfold human-kind. Expressing his costly righteousness Be my work in a world of pain, And expounding the virtue of his dear love, Publishing "Behold the Lamb!" And happy I shall be in the vale, If I get about him to make mention; I will shout in the face of black death - "O behold, behold the Lamb!"tr. 2015 Richard B Gillion |
Jesus! the name high over all, In hell or earth or sky; Angels and men before it fall, And devils fear and fly. Jesus! the name to sinners dear, The name to sinners giv'n; It scatters all their guilty fear, It turns their hell to Heav'n. O that the world might taste and see The riches of His grace! The arms of love that compass me Would all the world embrace. His only righteousness I show, His saving grace proclaim; 'Tis all my business here below To cry "Behold the Lamb!" Happy, if with my latest breath I might but gasp His name, Preach Him to all and cry in death, "Behold, behold the Lamb!"Charles Wesley 1707-88 Hymns and Sacred Poems 1749
