Cael aros yn y tŷ
Sydd ryw anfeidrol fraint -
I alw ar Dduw o hyd,
A moli gyda'r saint:
Mi seiniaf glod ar uchel dant,
Os gwela'i f'enw 'mhlith y plant.
Mae enwau'i blant i gyd
Gan Iesu yn y nef;
Ni chollir un o'r rhain
Tra paro'i fywyd Ef:
Fe arddel Ei aelodau mân
Ar ôl i'r ddaear fynd ar dân.
Thomas Phillips 1772-1842
Tonau [666688]: |
To get to stay in the house
Is some immeasurable privilege -
To call on God always,
And praise with the saints:
I will sound praise on a high string,
If I see my name amongst the children.
The names of all his children are
With Jesus in heaven;
Not one of those is to be lost
As long as He continues to live:
He will own His little members
After the earth goes on fire.
tr. 2010 Richard B Gillion
