O Iesu mawr, yr hwn erioed, Mae d'enw gwiw uwch pob rhyw glôd; Llawenydd pur y seintiau cu, Dychryn ysbrydoedd uffern ddû. Dy enw di mor hyfryd yw I wael bechadur, Iesu gwiw; Gwasgaru wnaiff ei ofnau ef, A throi ei uffern ddû yn nef! O deued pawb i brofi blas O hedd fy Nuw, a dwyfol ras; Enyned cariad Iesu mawr Yn mhob rhyw fynwes ar y llawr. Doed yr holl fyd at Frenin ne', Mi wn fod yn ei freichiau le: Ffowch, bechaduriaid, ffowch yn glau, Duw cariad yn eich galw mae. O brysia, brysia, ddedwydd ddydd Pan welir meibion Adda'n rhydd, A'r byd i gyd ar uchel gân 'Dderchafu clôd yr Iesu glân. yn glau :: rhag gwae

O great Jesus, the greatest ever, Thy worthy name is above every kind of praise; The pure joy of the dear saints, The horror of the spirits of black hell. Thy name so delightful is To a base sinner, worthy Jesus; Scatter shall all his fears, And turn his black hell into heaven! O may all come to experience a taste Of my God's peace, and divine grace; May the love of great Jesus be kindled In every kind of breast on the earth. May all the world come to the King of heaven, I know that there is room in his arms: Flee, sinners, flee quickly, The God of love calling you is. O hurry, hurry, thou happy day When the sons of Adam are to be seen free, And all the world with a loud song Exalt the praise of the holy Jesus. quickly :: from woe tr. 2020 Richard B Gillion |
Jesus! the name high over all, In hell or earth or sky; Angels and men before it fall, And devils fear and fly. Jesus! the name to sinners dear, The name to sinners giv'n; It scatters all their guilty fear, It turns their hell to Heav'n. O that the world might taste and see The riches of His grace! The arms of love that compass me Would all the world embrace. O that my Jesu's heavenly charms Might every bosom move! Fly, sinners, fly into those arms Of everlasting love. Happy, if with my latest breath I might but gasp His name, Preach Him to all and cry in death, "Behold, behold the Lamb!"
Charles Wesley 1707-88
