HYMN XX.
G. R. G. (George Richard Gould) Pughe translation
“A new and living way” Heb. x, 20.
“Ffordd â’i henw yn “Rhyfeddol””
Yesterday, to-day, and ever,— Liable to no decay,— Wonderful above all other Is the new and living way: Stained, regained and consecrated By My Blessed Saviour’s Blood, It conducts the lone, belated Pilgrim to the throne of God.
Though it mean regeneration, Rest, imputed righteousness, Liberty, justification, And eternal happiness, Multitudes, preferring midnight, Wander witlessly astray, Even though the shining sunlight Shew this new and living way.
Preordained before creation Rose—in Eve, the woman’s seed,— It was man’s one consolation In his night of utmost need— Primitively preconcerted By The Blessed Trinity.— Never may I be perverted, O My God, from it and Thee!
