Rhyfeddu'r wyf na welai'r byd Farwolaeth Crist, a'i aberth drud, A'i adgyfodiad, ger ein bron, Trwy'r ordinhad sancteiddiol hon. Mae'n weddus i ni gofio 'nawr Am ddarostyngiad Iesu mawr; Aeth yr Iorddonen dros ei wedd Pan gladdwyd Ef mewn dyfrllyd fedd. Nes treulio oesoedd maith y byd, A'r holl ddefnyddiau doddi 'nghyd, Y rheol hon a saif yr un, Diysgog yw fel Duw ei hun. Robert Williams (Robert ap Gwilym Ddu) 1766-1850
Tonau [MH 8888]: |
I wonder that the world would not see The death of Christ, and his costly sacrifice, And his resurrection, right before us Through this sacred ordinance. It is fitting for us to remember now The humbling of of great Jesus; The Jordan went over his countenance When he was buried in a watery grave. Until the world's vast ages wear out, And the elements melt altogether, This rule shall stand the same, Unshakeable it is like God himself. tr. 2023 Richard B Gillion |
