HYMN XII.
G. R. G. (George Richard Gould) Pughe translation
“Jesus Christ, and Him crucified.” 1 Cor. ii, 2.
“Nis dichon byd â’i holl deganau”
All the world, its pomp and pleasure, Fail to mesmerise my mind; But I realise a treasure In The Saviour of mankind. He alone, and not another, Could atone for me, and He Cleaveth closer than a brother In the last extremity.
O to live in Him abiding Every time I draw my breath, And to sleep in Him confiding When my soul departs in death! Why should I disdain to carry Patiently my cross, when He Died upon a sanguinary Tree on Calvary for me?
