Yn uchel fry ar fryn,
Rhwng daear gron a nef,
Holl rwysg Gehenna fawr,
A'i grym, orchfygodd Ef:
Tan hoelion dūr, 'Fe'u maeddodd hwy,
Pa fodd ymffrostia uffern mwy?
Wel dacw'r ffordd yn rhydd,
Agorwyd hi o bob tu,
O ddyfnder daear lās,
I uchder nefoedd fry:
O dring, dring, fy enaid mwy,
Mae nerth i'w gael mewn marwol glwy'.
Wel, deuwn yn y blaen,
Fe gwympodd ofnau mawr,
Ar y gelynion hy'
Oedd am ein cael i lawr;
Fe gaed y dydd, mi glywa'r nen
Yn canu'r goncwest ar y pren.

O, ddedwydd fryn, santeiddiaf le,

Sy'n myn'd i'w glustiau Ef:
Teylnau aur sy'n cānu'n un,

The heirs of grace shall sing
Sweetly soon,
On seeing the drowning of Egypt,
And they on yonder side,
My soul, fly to the top of the hill,
To see this wonderful conquest.
High up on a hill,
Between round earth and heaven,
All the ostentation of great Gehenna,
And its force, He overcame:
Under nails of steel, He beat them,
How can hell boast any more?
See yonder the way free,
It was opened on every side,
From the depth of blue-green earth,
To the height of heaven above:
O climb, climb, my soul evermore,
Strength is to be got in a mortal wound.
See, let us come forward,
Great fears fell,
On the boastful enemies
Who wanted to get us down;
He got the day, I hear heaven
Singing the conquest on the tree.
The heirs shall sing The song of the heirs is

The heirs of grace shall sing
Sweetly soon,
On seeing the drowning of Egypt,
And they on yonder side;
My soul, fly to the top of the hill,
To see this wonderful conquest.
The name of Calvary,
Which once was a great shame,
Is in the sight of my dear soul
Greater than heaven now:
O, happy hill, most holy place,
Which received the divine blood of heaven.
About great Jesus his grace
Are the songs of heaven;
And the anthem with relish
Is going to His ears:
Harps of gold are playing as one,
The effective conquest of the Son of man.
tr. 2016 Richard B Gillion

The heirs of grace shall sing,
Melodious in that day,
When Egypt's mighty hosts
Are banish'd all away;
Ascend the hill, my soul, and see
This great and glorious victory.

The name of Calvary,
Once a place of shame,
It has, to-day, to me
A glory in the name:
Oh, happy mount, the choicest given.
On thee was shed the blood of heaven.
Of Jesus and his grace
Heaven is filled with song,
The anthems of the place,
His name they all prolong:
The golden harps will join in one
To praise the victories of the Son.
