Trwy rinwedd nefol ras Rhof glod i'r Iesu glân; Gorchfygodd angeu glas, Fe'm tynodd i o'r tân: Archollwyd ef, cadd farwol friw; Mae etto'n fyw; fy enaid cân. Fy nghalon pam nas tŷr Yn ddrylliau bob yr awr, Wrth wel'd fy Mhrynwr pur A'i waed yn llif i'r llawr, Gan wylo'n daer ar Dduw ei Dad Am faddeu'n rhad fy meiau mawr? Rhyfelodd Crist â'r ddraig, Trwy angeu dirfawr boen; Gorchfygodd Had y wraig; I'r orsedd 'r aeth yr Oen: Dros f'enaid i mae yno'n awr, F'Eiriolwr mawr, a'm hanwyl Iôn. Congcwerodd Iesu'n llyn, Ellyllon uffern faith, 'D oes ynddynt bellach rym, I'm rhwystro ar fy nhaith: Pa'm yr ofnaf mwy? anturia'n hŷ', Trwy ganol llu ngelynion llaith. Mae'r ffordd yn awr yn rhydd I entrych nefoedd wen, Gall pob pechadur prudd Gael lle o fewn i'r llen: Mae'r Iesu fry â'i freichiau ar led, Fy enaid cred: Amen, Amen.William Williams 1717-91
Tonau [666688]: |
Through the virtue of heavenly grace I will give praise to holy Jesus; He overcame utter death, He pulled me out of the fire: He was wounded, he got a mortal bruise; Yet he is living; my soul, sing! My heart why not break In pieces every hour, On seeing my pure Redeemer And his blood as a flood to the ground, While weeping intensely to God his Father For the forgiving freely of my great faults? Christ battled with the dragon, Through death of enormous pain; The Seed of the woman overcame; To the throne went the Lamb: For my soul he is there now, My great Intercessor, and my beloved Lord. Jesus conquered thus, The demons of vast hell, There is no force in them any more, To obstruct me on my journey: Why shall I fear any more? I will venture boldly, Through the centre of a host of my deadly enemies. The way is now free To the vault of the bright heavens, Every sad sinner may Get a place within the curtain: Jesus is above with his arms open wide, My soul, believe: Amen, Amen. tr. 2017 Richard B Gillion |
