Tonau [7676D]: gwelir: Pechadur wyf O Arglwydd |
Before thee, O God, I am coming While standing from afar; Sinner is my name - I possess no better name: Mercy I am seeking, And seek still I shall do; Mercy to me give - I will perish unless I have it. O Lord I have nothing Through my life as far as the grave, Still but to pray, "Forgive One would not deserve peace!"; Thou didst save a myriad myriads - I will push in with them, And cry, save even me! Remember my transgression no more. Although I have sinned detestably From my boyhood until now, A thousand times greater is thy mercy Than all my great sins; More the merit of the blood of thy heart Than my detestable, hated sins, Deeper than my condemnation Is thy saving grace. - - - - - Before thee, O God, I am coming While standing from afar; Sinner is my name - I possess no better name: Mercy I am seeking, And seek still I shall do; Mercy to me give - I will die unless I have it. A sinner I am, I see, O God, I can do nothing; I am poor, I am filthy, I am guilty, O be there mercy for me; I confess that I have nothing, Through my life as far as the grave, Still but to pray, "Forgive!" I do not deserve peace. I heard of old that Jesus did, And that he does thus now, Receive publicans And great sinners; O receive, Lord, receive Me also with them! And forgive all the falsehood Without remembering the transgression any more. :: :: I am filthy, I am guilty :: filthy, guilty tr. 2011 Richard B Gillion |
Unto Thy presence coming, O God, far off I stand: A sinner" is my title, No other I demand. For mercy I am seeking For mercy still shall cry; Deny me not Thy mercy; O grant it or I die! - - - - - Unto Thy presence coming, O God, far off I stand: A sinner" is my title, No other I demand. For mercy I am seeking For mercy still shall cry; Deny me not Thy mercy; O grant it or I die! I heard of old that Jesus, Who still abides the same, To publicans gave welcome, And sinners deep in shame. Oh God! receive me with them, Me also welcome in, And pardon my transgression, Forgetting all my sin.
