1,2,3,(4).
Nid oes funyd fach o'm bywyd
Na fuost, Arglwydd, i mi'n dda,
Ti'm gwaredaist fil o weithiau,
Yma ac acw, rhag rhyw bla;
Fe'm hachubwyd
Am it' sefyll o fy mhlaid.
Dengmil llawn o gyfyngderau,
Ac o rwydau cyfrwys fwy,
Fu gan Satan i fy maglu,
A chwympaswn iddynt hwy;
Ti dy hunan
Oedd a'm daliodd i i'r lan.
'Rwyt ti'n drech na'm calon galed,
'Rwyt ti'n drech na'm pechod cas:
Ti wnai 'm hanwyl chwant a minnau,
Pryd y mynost, gwympo i maes;
Croesa 'mhechod -
Croesa'r peth wyf am fwynhau.
Dy ddoethineb a dy allu
Sydd yn abl i dori lawr,
D'rysu, difa, a newynu,
'R penaf un o'm beiau mawr:
Gwna i mi ganu;
Concrwyd
gelyn mwy na'r byd.

Nid oes munud bach o'm bywyd,
Na fuost, Arglwydd, i mi'n dda,
Ti'm gwaredaist fil o weithiau,
Yma ac accw, rhag rhyw bla;
Fe'm hachubwyd, &c.
Am it' sefyll o fy mhlaid.
Deng mil lawn o gyfyngderau,
Ac o rwydau cyfrwys fwy,
Fu gan satan i fy maglu,
Cwymp'swn inneu iddynt hwy;
Ti dy hunan, &c.
Oedd a'm daliodd i i'r lan.
Mi dueddais gant o weithiau
O ochr fy ngelynion cas,
Gwell bedd gennyf golli'r frwydr,
Nag oedd gennyf gario'r maes;
Ti'm hachubaist, &c.
Pan o'wn inneu'n myn'd i'r tān.

Dy ddoethineb, a dy allu,
Sydd yn abl torri lawr,
D'rysu, mwrddro, a newynu
'R pennaf un o'm meiau mawr;
Gwna i mi ganu, &c.
Congc'rwyd
gelyn fwy nā'r byd.

Tonau [878747]: |
There is no small minute of my life
Thou wast not, Lord, good to me,
Thou didst deliver me a thousand times,
Here and there, from some plague;
I was saved
For thee to stand on my side.
Ten thousand full of straits,
And of more crafty net,
Were by Satan to ensnares me,
And I would fall into them;
Thou thyself
It was who held me up.
Thou art mightier than my hard heart,
Thou art mightier than my detestable sin:
Thou wilt make my beloved lust and me,
When thou wilt, fall out;
Cross my sin -
Cross the thing I am wanting to enjoy.
Thy wisdom and thy power
Are able to break down,
Confound, destroy and starve,
The chief of my great faults:
Make me sing;
An enemy greater than the world
was conquered.

I was inclined a hundred times
From the side of my detestable enemies,
Better I have a grave than lose the battle,
It was not within me to carry the field;
Thou didst save me, &c.
When I was going into the fire.
Thou art mightier than my hard heart,
Thou art mightier than my detestable sin:
Thou wilt make my beloved lust and me,
When thou wilt, fall out;
Cross my sin, &c.
Cross the thing I am wanting to enjoy.
Thy wisdom and thy power
Are able to break down,
Confound, slay and starve,
The chief of my great faults:
Make me sing, &c.
An enemy greater than the world
was conquered.
