O Ddyfnder diwaelod cyfammod a threfn! Yr arfaeth dragwyddol sydd ddyfnder drachefn! Rhagoddef, rhagweled mai syrthio wnai dyn, Ac ethol Gwaredwr tragwyddol ei hun! O ddyfnder! pwy fesur ddoethineb y ne'? Cyfammod tragwyddol, ni syflir o'i le: Gosodwyd y sylfaen - mor gadarn yw'r graig! Ti, Arglwydd y lluoedd, a dd'rysodd y ddraig.Edward Jones 1761-1836
Tonau [11.11.11.11]: |
O the depths of covenant and providence! The eternal scheme which is a depth once again! Suffering beforehand, foreseeing that man would fall, And electing an eternal Deliverer himself! O depths! who measures the wisdom of heaven? An eternal covenant, not to be shifted from its place: The foundation was laid - how firm is the rock! Thou, Lord of the hosts, hast confounded the dragon.tr. 2019 Richard B Gillion |
How deep in foundation the covenant of God! How wise is the counsel of my blessed Lord. Before the creation, the fall was foreseen, And salvation prepared for sinners unclean. Unfathomable deep is the wisdom of heaven; To the council eternal no date can be given. Like rocks in the ocean, it never will shake, He'll never, no, never, his promise forsake.Hymns & Tunes in Welsh & English (E T Griffith) 1884 Tune [11.11.11.11]: Y Rhosyn Olaf (<1884) |
