Enaid egwan paid ag ofni,
'Dyw d'elynion oll yn un,
Ond rhai eisioes wedi eu conc'ro,
Gan a wisgodd natur dyn,
Fe fyn weled, &c.
Pob rhyw elyn dan fy nhraed.
Gwaed y groes sy'n codi i fynu,
'R eiddil yn goncwerwr mawr,
Gwaed y groes sydd yn darostwng,
Cawri cedyrn fyrdd i lawr,
Gâd i'm deimlo, &c.
Awel o Galfaria fryn.
Dechre canu, dechre canmol,
Y'mhen mil o filoedd
maith,
Fy Iesu, bydd y pererinion,
Hyfryd draw
ar ben eu taith;
Ni bydd diwedd, &c.
Byth ar ganu iddo ef.
Yno câf fi dd'weyd yr hanes,
Pa fodd y dringodd eiddil gwan,
Trwy afonydd, a thros greigiau,
Dyrys anial serth i'r lann;
Iesu ei hunan, &c.
Gaiff y clod
trwy eitha'r nef.
Ni bydd yno
gofio beiau,
Dim ond llawn faddeuant rhad,
Poenau'r groes a
grym y cariad,
A rhinweddau maith y gwaed;
Darfu ofni, &c.
Daeth llawenydd yn ei le.
William Williams 1717-91

Weak soul, do not fear,
Nought are all thy enemies as one,
But those already conquered,
By him who wore man's nature,
He insists on seeing, etc.
Every kind of enemy under my feet.
The blood of the cross is raising up,
The weak as a great conqueror,
The blood of the cross is humbling,
A myriad strong giants down,
Let me feel, etc.
A breeze from Calvary hill.
Singing will begin, extolling will begin
At the head of a thousand
vast thousands,
My Jesus, the pilgrims shall be,
Delightful yonder
at the end of their journey;
There will be no end, etc.
Ever to the song unto him.
There may I get to tell the story,
How climbed a feeble weak one,
Through rivers, and across rocks,
Up through a troublesome desert steep;
Jesus himself, etc.
Shall get the acclaim
throughout the utmost heaven.
There shall not be there
any remembering of faults,
Only full forgiveness, free,
The pains of the cross and
the force of love,
And the vast merits of the blood;
Fearing shall vanish, etc.
Joy shall come in its place.
tr. 2015 Richard B Gillion

But begun will be the singing
Unto Jesus round
His throne,
By the saved when tardy ages
With their songs
and joys are flown:
And for ever,
Shall the golden harps resound.
There shall I rehearse the story,
How a weakling faint and worn,
Was o'er rocks and through deep waters,
To eternal glory borne:
Jesus wholly,
Shall absorb the
songs of heaven.
Favourite Welsh Hymns, Joseph Morris, 1854.
