"Llef" - "A Cry"

O! Iesu mawr, rho d'anian bur
I eiddil gwan mewn, anial dir,
I'w nerthu drwy'r holl rwystrau sy
Ar ddyrys i'r Ganaan fry.

O Jesus, let Thy spirit bless
This frail one in the wilderness
To guide him through the snares of lie
On Canaan's way to Thee on high.


Pob gras sydd yn yr Eglwys fawr,
Fry yn y nef, neu ar y llawr,
Caf feddu ull, eu meddu'n un,
Wrth feddu d'annian Di dy Hun.

All grace that through Thy Church doth flow,
In heaven above and here below,
All shall I have, all shall be mine
If I but have Thy grace divine.


Mi lyna'n dawel wrth dy draed,
Mi ganaf am rinweddau'r gwaed,
Mi garia'r groes, mi nofia'r don,
Ond cael dy anian dan fy mron.

To Thy most holy feet I'll cling,
The virtues of Thy blood I'll sing,
The cross I'll bear, the wave I'll ride,
If Thou but with me now abide.

You dont get the real meaning unless during your grief you cry out to jesus whether in Welsh or English .. Oh God come and help me ..know my pain ........and .the pain you feel is shared by the one on the cross ..the one in heaven who,s son in torment passed from this world- grief shared ...O yesu mawr rho d,arnia i Oh great and wonderful jesus , come unto me I need you right now !

A Wail: O Jesus, let Thy spirit bless This frail one in the wilderness To guide him through the snares of lie On Canaan's way to Thee on high. 2. All grace that through Thy Church doth flow, In heaven above and here below, All shall I have, all shall be mine If I but have Thy grace divine. 3. To Thy most holy feet I'll cling, The virtues of Thy blood I'll sing, The cross I'll bear, the wave I'll ride, If Thou but with me now abide. Very Welsh - very moving!
