Ystormydd temtasiynau sy Yn curo f'enaid gwan i lawr; Rhag ymchwydd tonnau llygredd cry, Rhag boddi yn y dyfnder mawr: Tydi, Orchfgwr cnawd a byd, Rho help Dy law, rho'th gysgod clyd. Fy meddwl sydd ar donnog li' Pryderon llawn o ofn dihedd; Amheuaeth fel drychiolaeth sy, A dychryn lond ei marwol wedd; Tydi'r Gwirionedd, Iesu cu, Tyrd ataf i'm cysuro i. Blinderog gan ofidiau wyf, A llwythog gan orthrymder prudd; Ac ofni marw rydd im glwyf, Nes gwaedu'r fynwes nos a dydd: Gad im fwynhau'th dangnefedd Di, - I'r bywyd, Iesu, arwain fi!David Adams (Hawen) 1845-1922
Tonau [88.88.88]: |
The storms of temptations are Beating my weak soul down; From corruption's waves' strong swell, From drowning in the great deep: Thou, Conqueror of flesh and world, Give the help of thy hand, give thy cosy shelter. My though is on the billowing flow Of concerns full of fear without peace; Doubt is like a horror. And terror full of its deathly countenance; Thou the Truth, dear Jesus, Come to me to comfort me. Wearied by griefs I am, And burdened by sad oppression; And the fear of death gives me a wound, Until the breast bleeds night and day: "Let me enjoy thy tranquility, - To the life, Jesus, lead me!"tr. 2024 Richard B Gillion |
