Mae y ffordd yn flin i'w theithio, Mae Dy blant ymron diffygio, - Rho Dy wyneb, nefol Dad: Dyro'th Ysbryd i addoli; Dangos eto Dy ddaioni, A rhinwedda'th gariad rhad. Mae cymylau ein pechodau Wedi duo uwch ein pennau, - Gwena drwyddynt, Arglwydd mawr: Dyrcha arnom wedd Dy wyneb, Nes y gwelom anfarwoldeb Drwy'r cymylau'n dod i lawr. Arglwydd, agor ein calonnau, Tywallt iddynt Dy feddyliau Sydd yn llawn goleuni glān: Rho Dy ras i ddifa'n llygredd, Arwain ni yn Dy dangnefedd I ardalau'r nefol gān.Ben Davies 1864-1937
Tonau [887D]: |
The way is grievous to travel, Thy children are almost fainting, - Grant Thy face, heavenly Father: Give thy Spirit to worship; Show again Thy goodness, And the merit of thy free love. The clouds of our sins have Blackened above our heads, - Smile through them, great Lord: Lift upon us the countenance of thy face, Until we see immortality Through the clouds coming down. Lord, open our hearts, Pour into them Thy thoughts Which are full of holy light: Grant Thy grace to destroy corruption, Lead us in Thy peace To the regions of heavenly song.tr. 2018 Richard B Gillion |
