Nid oes enw 'mhlith angelion, Y'mhlith dynion, ac ni chaed, All fod i mi'n ddinas noddfa, Yn unig ond Iachawdwr rhad, Mae'r afonydd rwy'n myn'd trwyddynt, A'r tonnau mawrion mor ddirif, Nad oes dim ond nerth trad'wyddol, Ddeil fy enaid yn y llif. Mae fy nghalon yn 'sgrifenu, Ac yn adrodd wrthi'i hun, Enw hyfryd a rhinweddol Duw yn gwisgo natur dyn! Iachawdwriaeth, iachawdwriaeth, Iachawdwriaeth werthfawr iawn, Ydyw enw fy Ngwaredwr Gennyf, fore a phrynhawn. Can' ffarwel o gylch y ddaear, Can' ffarwel i bawb o'r bron, Can' ffarwel i'r gwerthfawrocaf Bethau enwir ar y don; Da a dynion aeth yn anghof, A phleserau o bob rhyw; Bellach i mi dim ond canu - Canu cariad i fy Nuw. Duw yn unig sydd o'm hochr, Ni thâl dynion i mi ddim; Llawer trymach yw fy meichiau Nag yw cewri'r byd o rym; Iesu ddeil fy maich, er cymmaint, Iesu ei hunan laesa'm loes, Eithaf llid y nef ac uffern Ddaliodd unwaith ar y groes.William Williams 1717-91

There is no name amongst angels, Amongst men, to be had, Which can be to me as a city of refuge, But a gracious Saviour alone, The rivers I am going through, And the great, unnumbered waves, There is nothing but eternal strength, Shall hold my soul in the flood. My heart is writing, And reporting to itself, A delightful and virtuous name Of God wearing the nature of man! Salvation, salvation, Very precious salvation, Is the name of my Deliverer I have, morning and afternoon. Sing farewell around the earth, Sing farewell to everyone entirely, Sing farewell to the most precious Things to be named on the wave; Goods and men went forgotten, And pleasures of every kind; Now I have nothing but singing - Singing love to my God. God alone is on my side, Men are not worth anything to me; Much heavier are my burdens Than the force of the world's giants; Jesus will hold my burden, although so great, Jesus himself will ease my anguish, The extreme wrath of heaven and hell He held once upon the cross.tr. 2017 Richard B Gillion |
