Moliannaf Di fy Nuw

Moliannaf Di, fy Nuw,
  Mewn gorfoleddus ddawn,
A fod i'r euog dua'i liw
  Ddihangfa yn yr Iawn;
Daw gras y nefoedd wen
  I lonni'm henaid trist,
Os caf ond rhoddi pwys fy mhen
  Ar fynwes Iesu Grist.

Yng ngwlad y cystudd mawr
  Gofchfygodd wrtho'i Hun;
A ffordd y bywyd sydd yn awr
  Yn rhydd i euog ddyn;
Fe sathrodd dan Ei draed
  Elynion fwy na rhi;
A phrynodd, drwy Ei briod waed,
  Y nef yn ôl i mi.

Gorffennwyd ar y bryn
  Achubol drefn y nef,
A thorrodd dydd tragwyddol wyn
  Ar nos Ei angau Ef;
Arfaethau dwyfol ras
  Eglurwyd ynddo'n llawn,
A'r euog sydd yn profi blas
  Maddeuant yn yr Iawn.

Er garwed yw fy myd,
  Er dyfned yw fy loes,
Mae'r holl ofidiau'n troi o hyd
  Yn wynfyd wrth y groes;
Mi gerddaf tua'r nef
  Ar ôl fy Iesu glân,
A chanaf glod Ei enw Ef
  Ynghanol dŵr a thân.
Evan Rees (Dyfed) 1850-1923

[Mesur: MBD 6686D]

I will praise Thee, my God,
  In a jubilant gift,
Which is to the guilty of blackest colour
  An escape in the Atonement;
May the grace of the bright heaven come
  To cheer my sad soul,
If I can get but to lean my head
  On the breast of Jesus Christ.

In the land of the great tribulation
  He overcame by Himself;
And the way of life is now
  Available to guilty man;
He trampled under His feet
  Enemies more than number;
And bought, through His own blood,
  Heaven back for me.

Finished on the hill was
  The saving plan of heaven,
And the eternal, bright day broke
  On the night of His death;
The weapons of divine grace
  Were made clear in him fully,
And the guilty is experiencing a taste
  Of forgiveness in the Atonement.

Despite how rough is my world,
  Despite how deep is my anguish,
All the griefs are turning always
  Into blessedness by the cross;
I will walk towards heaven,
And I will sing the acclaim of His name
  In the midst of water and fire.
tr. 2016 Richard B Gillion
