Mae d'eisiau di bob awr,
Fy Arglwydd Dduw,
Daw hedd o'th dyner lais
O nefol ryw.

Mae d'eisiau, O mae d'eisiau,
Bob awr mae arnaf d'eisiau,
Bendithia fi, fy Ngheidwad,
Bendithia nawr.

Mae d'eisiau di bob awr,
Trig gyda mi,
Cyll temtasiynau'u grym
Yn d'ymyl di.

Mae d'eisiau di bob awr,
Rho d'olau clir,
Rho imi nerth, a blas
Dy eiriau gwir.

Mae d'eisiau di bob awr,
Sancteiddiaf Ri,
Yn Iesu gwna fi'n wir
Yn eiddot ti.

cyf. John Roberts (Ieuan Gwyllt) 1822-1877
Tôn: Mae d'eisiau di bob awr (I need thee every hour)

There is need of thee every hour, My Lord God,
Peace comes from thy tender voice Of a heavenly kind.

There is need of thee, Oh there is need of thee!
Every hour I have need of thee,
Bless me, my Saviour,
Bless now!

There is need of thee every hour, Abide with me,
Temptations lose their force By thy side.

There is need of thee every hour, Give thy clear light,
Give me strength, and a taste Of thy true word.

There is need of thee every hour, Most holy Lord,
In Jesus make me truly Belonging to thee.

tr. 2008 Richard B Gillion

Distributed under the Delyse label and according to the music department at Cardiff University, never transcribed onto CD. It was the first of initially two in the "A Nation Sings" series., the second produces in 1964, also distributed by Delyse. Subsequent recordings of Eisteddfods recorded at Royal Albert Hall are on CD and were distributed by Black Mountain. Delyse is long since out of business and copies of the 1963 and 1964 recordings are available from time to time on line.

This is a beautiful hymn. Lyrics: 1872 Annie S Hawks 1836-1918

Tune: "I need thee every hour" Robert Lowry 1826-1899 Annie lived in Brooklyn NY, and Lowry challenged her to write the lyrics. Legend claims that she dreamt the words. I think this recording is from "A Nation Sings", 1963 at the Royal Albert Hall. Only available on vinyl disk, but check eBay. If tears came to your eyes listening to this, wait until you hear Cwm Rhondda - just played at William and Kate's wedding now.
