Mae'r tîr anghyfannedd
o'r diwedd yn dwyn
Mammogiaid i'r eglwys,
yn gymmwys, ac ŵyn:
Tir Affrica ddiffrwyth,
sy'n ystwyth yn awr,
I Dduw gael gogoniant;
â'i foliant yn fawr.
Tîr anial di-rinwedd,
o lygredd oedd lawn,
Sy'n dechreu blodeuo
i Dduw etto'n dda iawn;
I lawer sŷch leoedd,
tros foroedd, ar fyr,
Bendithion o'r nefoedd
fel dyfroedd a dỳr.
Gogoniant, gogoniant,
fod llwyddiant i'r llêf,
Sy'n dyfod â bywyd,
yn ysbryd y nêf:
Mae'n gwneud plant afradlon,
oedd feirwon, yn fyw;
A thorf o'i elynion,
yn ddynion i Dduw.
Bydd canu trag'wyddol,
dedwyddol, heb daw,
Pan elo'r duwiolion,
da droion, tu draw
I'r llen, sy'n cysgodi
daioni Mâb Duw
A ddug yn ddiogel
o'r rhyfel bob rhyw.
Na fydded i Satan
gael man yma mwy,
I rwymo plant dynion
tan gloeon, neu glwy';
O brysied y munud
i'w symud o'i swydd:
Mae'n attal bob amser
in' lawer o lwydd.
Gobeithio mai arwydd
y sydd yn nesau,
Y teflir y diafol
uffernl i'w ffau,
Y danfon cenhadon,
a Biblau mor bell,
A miloedd yn dyfod
i'w wybod yn well.
Edward Jones 1761-1836Hymnau ar Amryw Destynau ac Achosion 1820 [Mesur: 11.11.11.11] |
The deserted land is
at last bearing
Dams for the church,
suitable, and lambs:
The fruitless land of Africa,
is pliable now,
For God to get glory;
with his praise great.
A desert land without merit,
that was full of corruption,
Is beginning to flourish
to God again very good;
To many arid places,
overseas, shortly,
Blessings from heaven
like waters shall break.
Glory, glory,
that there be success to the cry,
That is bringing life,
in the spirit of heaven:
It is making prodigal children,
who were dead, alive;
And a host of enemies,
into men for God.
There shall be eternal, happy
singing, without falling silent,
When the godly ones go,
good fortune, beyond
The curtain, that is shadowing
the goodness of the Son of God
Who will bring safe
from the battle every kind.
May Satan get
no place here any more.
To bind the children of men
under locks, or illness;
O may the minute hurry
to remove him from his office:
He prevents every time
much of our success.
One hopes that the a sign
that the time is drawing near
When the infernal devil
shall be cast into his lair,
Is the sending of missionaries,
and Bibles so far,
And thousands coming
to know better.
tr. 2025 Richard B Gillion
