Mor glaer yw'r gogoneddus Saint Mewn gwisgoedd gwynion sydd! Pa fodd y daethant hwy i fraint Trigfannau bythol ddydd? O'r cystudd mawr i'r wlad ddi-glwy' Y daeth y lluoedd hyn; Yng Ngwaed yr Oen golchasant hwy Eu gynau'n berffaith wyn. Â phalmwydd concwest, dorf ddi-lyth, Gerbron ei orsedd ef, Addolant Dduw a garant byth Yng nghlaer ogoniant nef. Ni theimlir yno boen y llawr, Na gwres na lludded prudd; Duw yw eu haul, a'u siriol wawr Trwy fythol, ddedwydd ddydd. Yr Oen sydd ar orseddfainc nef A lywia'r llu di-nam, Cânt Ddwyfol ymborth ganddo ef, Fe'u tywys, gam a cham. Drwy lennyrch ir fe'u harwain hwy Gerllaw y dyfroedd byw, A Duw a sych o'u llygaid mwy Holl ddagrau'r anial gwyw. Duw Dad a Mab ac Ysbryd Glân Addolwn yn ddi-lyth; Boed mawl i'r Drindod ddiwahân, A'r holl ogoniant byth.cyf. Arthur Simon Thomas (Anellydd) 1865-1935

How bright are the glorious saints Who are in white robes! What did they come to the privilege Of the dwellings of everlasting day? From the great tribulation to the land without disease These hosts came; In the blood of the Lamb they had washed Their robes perfectly white. With the palms of victory, an unfailing throng, Before his throne, They worship God whom they love forever In the bright glory of heaven. No pain of earth is felt there, Nor heat nor sad corruption; God is their sun, and their cheerful dawn Throughout an everlasting, happy day. 'Tis the Lamb who is on heaven's throne Who guides the spotless host, They get divine sustenance from him, He leads them, step by step. Through fresh glades they were led Beside the living waters, And God shall dry from their eyes evermore All the tears of the wizened desert. God Father and Son and Holy Spirit Let us worship unfailingly; Let praise be to the undivided Trinity, And all the glory forever.tr. 2020 Richard B Gillion |
How bright these glorious spirits shine! Whence all their white array? How came they to the blissful seats Of everlasting day? Lo! these are they from sufferings great Who came to realms of light; And in the blood of Christ have washed Those robes which shine so bright. Now with triumphal palms they stand Before the throne on high, And serve the God they love amidst The glories of the sky. Hunger and thirst are felt no more, Nor suns with scorching ray; God is their sun, whose cheering beams Diffuse eternal day. The Lamb, which dwells amidst the throne Shall over them still preside, Feed them with nourishment divine, And all their footsteps guide. Midst pastures green He'll lead His flock Where living streams appear; And God the Lord from every eye Shall wipe off every tear. To Father, Son and Holy Ghost, The God whom we adore, Be glory, as it was, is now, And shall be evermore.Isaac Watts 1674-1748
