Bum heddyw gyd a'th bobl gu
Yn gwledda, O Dad o fewn dy dŷ:
Ces heddyw brawf o'r ymborth brâs
A drefnodd rhâd anfeidrol râs.
Mor felus yw'th gymdeithas Di
Dros ennyd awr i'm henaid i!
O! am y nefol gyflawn wledd
Sy'n ngŵydd yr Oen
ynglwad yr hedd!
Pan dderfydd fy Sabbothau i gyd,
A'm heinioes fer yn hyn o fyd,
O Dad, dwg fi i'th breswyl fry
I seinio clod yr Iesu cu.

'Rwyf heddyw gyda'th deulu di,
Fy nefol Dad o fewn dy dŷ;
I weled gwedd
f'Anwylyd gwiw,
Mor hoff ei lais!
mor hardd ei liw!
Dy Sabbath santaidd yma sydd
Orphwysfa'm bron flinderus brudd;
A'th demi lân sydd i mi le
Cysurus 'nawr, fel cwr o'r ne'.
Gwyn fyd y llu o fewn i'r llen,
Lle na ddaw'r Sabbath byth i ben;
Lle nad oes croes
i weision Crist,
Na gofid trwm, nac enaid trist.
Ond prynedigion
gwaed yr Oen,
Yn dorf aneirif, bur
heb boen,
A'th ber glodforant o un fryd,
Yn ddedwydd byth, mewn nefol fyd.
Pan dderfydd fy Sabbathau'i gyd,
A'm heinioes frau yn hyn o fyd,
Dwg fi'n ddifraw
i'th breswyl fry,
I seinio clod fy Iesu cu.

Tôn [MH 8888]: Duke Street (John C Hatton 1710-93) gwelir: O arwain fi trwy'r anial le |
Today I was with thy dear people,
Feasting, O Father, within thy house;
Today I had a taste of the rich nutrition
That infinite free grace planned.
How sweet is thy fellowship
For a brief hour to my soul!
O for the complete heavenly feast,
That is in the presence of the Lamb
in the land of peace!
When all my Sabbaths vanish,
And my short life-span in this world,
O Father, bring me to thy residence above
To sound the acclaim of dear Jesus.
- - - - -
I am today with thy family,
My heavenly Father, within thy house;
To see the countenance
of my worthy Beloved;
How amiable his voice!
How beautiful his appearance!
Thy sacred Sabbath here is
A resting-place to my sad, weary soul;
And thy holy temple is to me is a place
Comforting now, like a corner of heaven.
Blessed are the host within the curtain,
Where the Sabbath never comes to an end;
Where there is no cross
for Christ's servants,
Nor heavy distress, nor a sad soul.
But those redeemed
by the blood of the Lamb,
As a pure, innumerable throng,
without pain,
Praise thee sweetly with one intent,
Happy forever, in a heavenly world.
When all my Sabbaths vanish,
And my fragile life-span in this world,
Bring me without fear
to thy residence above,
To sound the praise of my dear Jesus.
tr. 2024 Richard B Gillion
