Mae bedydd Crist yn ordinhad
Sydd yn arwyddo'r dŵr a'r gwaed
A drefnodd Duw i olchi dyn
Oddiwrth ei holl halogrwydd blin.
Mae'n arwydd o'r cyfammod rhad
Y sy rhwng Duw
a'r saint a'u had -
Yn foddion o gyflwyniad gwiw
I deulu a gwasanaeth duw.
O oes i oes bu'r
saint a'u had
Yn ddeiliaid y cyfammod rhad;
Babanod ieuainc, llesg eu llef,
Sy'n etifeddion teyrnas nef.
Cas. o Hymnau ... Wesleyaidd 1844
Tôn [MH 8888]: Yr Hen Ganfed (Salmydd Genefa 1551) |
The baptism of Christ is an ordinance
Which signifies the water and the blood
Which God arranged to wash man
From all his grievous defilement.
It is a sign of the free covenant
Which is between God
and the saints and their seed -
As medicine of worthy presentation
To the family and service of God.
From age to age have the saints
and their seed been
Tenants of the free covenant;
Young infants, feeble their cry,
Are heirs of the kingdom of heaven.
tr. 2008 Richard B Gillion
