Goleuni Caersalem   |   The Light of Jerusalem

VI. Y gwahaniaeth sydd rhwng rhith a sylwedd
VI. The difference there is between guise and substance

[Cyfeillach 29 - Am y Pethau sydd a
Gwahaniaeth rhyngddynt - Pennill Philip - 7676D]
O Arglwydd Dduw'r gwirionedd,
    rho sylwedd i ni gyd,
Na âd in' fyw'n rhagrithiol,
    a deddfol yn y byd:
  Rho i ni wir dduwioldeb,
      a wnelo'n henaid gwan
  Yn bwysau yn y gloriau
      sancteiddlan yn y man.
Azariah Shadrach 1774-1844

[Fellowship 29 - About the Things which have
a Difference between them - Philip's Verse - 7676D]
O Lord God of the truth,
    give substance to us all,
Do not let us live hypocritically,
    and legalistically in the world:
  Grant to us true godliness,
      which will make our weak soul
  Weighty in the holy
      scales soon.
tr. 2015 Richard B Gillion
