Mewn môr o ryfeddodau

Mewn môr o ryfeddodau,
  O! am gael treulio f'oes,
Ar dir pechadur aros
  A byw ar waed y groes,
A chael caethiwo'm meddwl
  Oll i ufudd-dod Crist,
A chydymffurfio â'i gyfraith,
  Bod drosto'n ffyddlon dyst.
Ann Griffiths 1776-1805

[Mesur: 7676D]

In a sea of wonders,
  O to get to spend my lifespan,
On the the land a sinner waiting
  And living on the blood of the cross,
And getting to bring my thoughts captive
  All to obedience to Christ,
And to conform to his law,
  To be for him a faithful witness.

Lapped in a sea of wonders
