Yn y llwch Waredwr hael! - Dyna le'r pechadur gwael: Pan y codwn wylaidd lef Edifeiriol tua'r nef, Mewn tosturi, Iesu mawr! Cofia euog deulu'r llawr; Ac oddi ar d'orseddfainc fry Gwrando'n rasol ar ein cri! Er mwyn geni isel, tlawd, Preseb Bethle'm, pan y cawd Trysor pena'r nef ei hun Wedi gwisgo natur dyn; Er mwyn llawer llid a chroes Gafodd Iesu hyd ei oes, Arglwydd Ior, tosturia Di, Gwrando'n rasol ar ein cri. Er mwyn taerni'r weddi ddrud A offrynnwyd dros y byd, Er mwyn chwys yr ardd, a'r cur, Er mwyn clwyfau'r hoelion dur, Er mwyn haeddiant angeu loes, Er mwyn marw mawr y groes! Edrych, Arglwydd! arnom ni - Gwrando'n rasol ar ein cri! Ti, yr hwn mae uffern ddofn Oll yn crynu rhag ei ofn; Ti, yr hwn a ddrylliaist sedd Angeu'i hun ar drothwy'r bedd, Ac a deflaist byrth y nen Yn agored led y pen - T'wysog bywyd! Iesu cu! Gwrando'n rasol ar ein cri!cyf. Richard Davies (Mynyddog) 1833-77

In the dust, generous Deliverer, Behold where the poor sinner is! When we raise a humble, petitioning Cry toward heaven, In mercy, great Jesus, Remember the guilty family of earth below; And from thy throne of splendour Listen graciously to our cry! For the sake of thy lowly, poor birth Manger of Bethlehem, when was found The chief treasure of heaven itself Having worn the nature of man; For the sake of much wrath and cross That Jesus had throughout his life, Sovereign Lord, show thou mercy, Listen graciously to our cry! For the sake of the earnestness of the precious prayer That was offered for the world, For the sake of the garden's sweat and the beating, For the sake of the steel nails' wounds, For the sake of the merit of the throes of death, For the sake of the great death of the cross, Look, Lord, upon us! - Listen graciously to our cry! Thou is fear of whom All deep hell doth tremble; Thou, who didst smash the seat Of death itself on the grave's threshold, And didst fling the gates of the sky Wide open - Prince of life, dear Jesus, Listen graciously to our cry!tr. 2023 Richard B Gillion |
Saviour, when, in dust, to Thee Low we bend th' adoring knee; When, repentant, to the skies Scarce we lift our weeping eyes, Oh, by all Thy pains and woe Suffered once for man below, Bending from Thy throne on high, Hear our solemn litany. By Thy birth and early years; By Thy life of want and tears; By Thy fasting and distress, In the lonely wilderness; By the dread mysterious hour Of the subtle tempter's power; Jesus, look with pitying eye; Hear our solemn litany. By Thine hour of dire despair, By Thine agony of prayer, By the cross, the nail, the thorn, Piercing spear, and torturing scorn, By the gloom that veiled the skies O'er the dreadful sacrifice, Listen to our humble cry, Hear our solemn litany. By Thy deep expiring groan; By the sealed sepulchral stone; By Thy triumph o'er the grave; By Thy power from death to save; Mighty God, ascended Lord, To Thy Throne in heaven restored, Prince and Saviour, hear our cry, Hear our solemn litany.1815 Robert Grant 1779-1838 Tune [7777D]: Aberystwyth (Josesph Parry 1841-1903) |
