Representative Text

1 At un a wrendy weddi’r gwan
’Rwyf yn dyrchafu ’ngrhi;
Ym mhob cyfyngder, ing, a phoen,
O Dduw! na wrthod fi.

2 Er mor annheilwng o fwynhau
Dy bresnoldeb Di,
A haeddu ’mwrw o ger Dy fron,
O Dduw! na wrthod fi.

3 Er bod yn euog o dristáu
Dy Ysbryd sanctaidd Di,
A themtio Dy amynedd mawr,
O Dduw! na wrthod fi.

4 Er mwyn Dy grog a’th angau drud
Ar fyndd Calfari,
A’th ddwys eiriolaeth yn y nef
O Dduw! na wrthod fi.
