O cenwch fawl i Brynwr byd (Nesewch i'w gyd-addoli)

(Esgyniad Crist)
O! cenwch fawl i Brynwr byd,
  Nesewch i'w gyd-addoli;
Mae'r engyl pur mewn nefol iaith
  Yn hoffi'r gwaith o'i foli:
Esgynodd Crist mewn cyfiawn hawl
  Trwy fythawl byrth gogoniant,
A phlygai'r nefoedd ag un llef,
  I'w dderbyn Ef mewn moliant.

Nesewch, nesewch,
    genhedloedd byd,
  O unfryd â'r angylion;
Mae Brenhin nef yn un o'n cnawd -
  Mae'r Iesu'n frawd i ddynion!
Molienwch Ef o galon bur,
  Mae'n haeddu'r oll a feddwn!
Gwaredwr dyn yw Brenin ne',
  Pwy ond Efe a folwn?

Nid Brenin Israel yw yn awr,
  Ond Brenin mawr yr hollfyd;
Daw delw'r byd i ddelw'r nef
  Pan enfyn Ef ei Ysbryd;
Daw pobloedd daear
    o bob lliw
  Yn siriol i'w groesawu,
A cherdda'r anthem drwy bob gwlad
  I roi mawrhâd i'r Iesu.

(The Ascension of Christ)
O sing ye praise to the world's Redeemer,
  Draw ye near to worship him together;
The pure angels in a heavenly language are
  Delighting in the work of praising him:
Christ ascended with a righteous entitlement
  Through the everlasting gates of glory,
And the heavens were bowing with one voice,
  To receive Him in praise.

Draw near, draw near,
    ye nation's of the world,
  With one intent with the angels;
The King of heaven is one of our flesh -
  Jesus is a brother to men!
Praise ye Him from a pure heart,
  He is deserving all we possess!
The Deliverer of man is the King of heaven,
  Whom but He shall we praise?

Not the King of Israel is he now,
  But the great King of the whole world;
The image of the world shall become
    the image of heaven
  When he sends his Spirit;
The peoples of earth of every colour
    shall come
  Cheerfully to welcome him,
And the anthem will walk through every land
  To give majesty to Jesus.
tr. 2016 Richard B Gillion
