Dyfnderoedd anchwiliadwy yw Holl ffyrdd y Duw anfeidrol; A'i ddoeth Ragluniaeth eglurha Ei gynghor da'n wastadol. Na farna'th Dduw'n ol rhagfarn ddall, Neu synwyr angall cnawdol; Ond cręd ei air, ac erfyn hedd Wrth draed ei orsedd rasol. Nac ofna'r cwmwl, Gristion gwan, Sy'n duo rhan o'r awyr; Dwg iti les, a daw i lawr Yn gawod fawr o gysur. Ymddiried yn Ei râs a'i nerth, Drwy'th boen a'th drafferth beunydd; Mae'n cuddio gwęn garedig iawn Tu hwnt i gyfiawn gerydd. Dwg cyn bo hir ei waith i ben, Eglura'i ddyben cywir; Ym ddengys ei ddirgelion mawr I'r nef a'r llawr yn eglur.cyf. Benjamin Francis 1734-99

Unsearchable depths are All the ways of the infinite God; And his wise Providence will elucidate His good counsel continually. Do not judge thy God according to blind prejudice, Or unwise, fleshly sense; But believe his word, and crave peace At the feet of his gracious throne. Do not fear the cloud, weak Christian, Which blackens part of the sky; It will bring thee benefit, which comes down As a great shower of comfort. Trust in his grace and his strength, Through thy pain and thy trouble daily; He is hiding a very loving smile Behind a righteous rebuke. He will soon bring his work to pass, He will elucidate his true intention; Showing his great secrets To the heaven and the earth clearly.tr. 2009,21 Richard B Gillion |
God moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform; He plants His footsteps in the sea And rides upon the storm. Deep in unfathomable mines Of never failing skill He treasures up His bright designs And works His sovereign will. Blind unbelief is sure to err And scan His work in vain; God is His own interpreter, And He will make it plain. Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take; The clouds ye so much dread Are big with mercy and shall break In blessings on your head. Judge not the Lord by feeble sense, But trust Him for His grace; Behind a frowning providence He hides a smiling face. His purposes will ripen fast, Unfolding every hour; The bud may have a bitter taste, But sweet will be the flower.William Cowper 1731-1800
