O Iesu mawr, pwy ond tydi Allasai farw drosom ni A'n dwyn o warth i fythol fri? Pwy all anghofio hyn? Doed myrdd ar fyrdd o bob rhyw ddawn I gydfawrhau d'anfeidrol Iawn, Y gwaith gyflawnaist un prynhawn Ar fythgofiadwy fryn. Nid yw y greadigaeth faith Na'th holl arwyddion gwyrthiol chwaith Yn gytbwys â'th achubol waith Yn marw i ni gael byw. Rhyfeddod heb heneiddio mwy Fydd hanes mawr dy farwol glwy'; Ni threiddia tragwyddoldeb drwy Ddyfnderoedd cariad Duw.William Abrose (Emrys) 1813-73
Tonau [8886]: Tôn [8886D]: Beulah (alaw Gymreig) |
O great Jesus, who but thee Could have died for us And lead us from disgrace to eternity above? Who can forget this? Let myriad after myriad of every kind of talent come To magnify together thy immeasurable Atonement, The work thou didst fulfil one afternoon On an ever-memorable hill. The vast creation is not Nor all thy miraculous signs either Equal to thy saving work In dying that we might live. A wonder without ageing henceforth Will be the great story of thy mortal wound; Eternity will not penetrate through The depths of God's love.tr. 2009 Richard B Gillion |
