Here is Love (Welsh) - Written by William Rees (Gwilym Hiraethog) 1802-83
Dyma gariad fel y moroedd,
Tosturiaethau fel y lli:
Twysog bywyd pur yn marw—
Marw i brynu’n bywyd ni.
Pwy all beidio â chofio amdano?
Pwy all beidio â thraethu’I glod?
Dyma gariad nad â’n angof
Tra fo nefoedd wen yn bod.
Ar Galfaria yr ymrwygodd
Holl ffynhonnau’r dyfnder mawr;
Torrodd holl argaeau’r nefoedd
Oedd yn gyfain hyd yn awr:
Gras â chariad megis dilyw
Yn ymdywallt ymâ ’nghyd,
A chyfiawnder pur â heddwch
Yn cusanu euog fyd.
Here is Love (English) - translated by William Edwards (1848-1929)
Here is love, vast as the ocean,
Lovingkindness as the flood,
When the Prince of Life, our Ransom,
Shed for us His precious blood.
Who His love will not remember?
Who can cease to sing His praise?
He can never be forgotten,
Throughout Heav’n’s eternal days.
On the mount of crucifixion,
Fountains opened deep and wide;
Through the floodgates of God’s mercy
Flowed a vast and gracious tide.
Grace and love, like mighty rivers,
Poured incessant from above,
And Heav’n’s peace and perfect justice
Kissed a guilty world in love.
Let me all Thy love accepting,
Love Thee, ever all my days;
Let me seek Thy kingdom only
And my life be to Thy praise;
Thou alone shalt be my glory,
Nothing in the world I see.
Thou hast cleansed and sanctified me,
Thou Thyself hast set me free.
In Thy truth Thou dost direct me
By Thy Spirit through Thy Word;
And Thy grace my need is meeting,
As I trust in Thee, my Lord.
Of Thy fullness Thou art pouring
Thy great love and power on me,
Without measure, full and boundless,
Drawing out my heart to Thee.
Jesus will do it
'Heaven and earth shall pass away, but MY WORDS shall not pass away.' - Mat. 24 : 35
'If ye shall ask anything in MY NAME, I will do it.' - John 14 : 14
As long as sun doth show that distant hill;
And moon benign protect this darkened path;
And stars forbid to blackness irksome sky;
And man and woman each the other need;
And hunger, weary, seek the bread of life;
And fire reveal the majesty of heat;
And water cleft by sword return and kiss;
And clouds with weeping ease the aching soil;
And Saint believing ask with righteous faith;
So long will Jesus do what you desire.
So long will Jesus answer when you call;
And open every door at which you knock;
And give you rightly what you, needing, ask;
And honour faith which cometh godly way;
And silence terror in the erstwhile mute;
And make the Bible ever rock of hope;
And by His blood prevail for sinner's plea;
And through His light dispel a world of woe;
And with His Rest release each burdened mind;
And in Saint's joy a newer song create;
So long shall all you ask be heard. So long?
His spoken word shall never pass away.
Since this be true, be dead a thousand cares!
Be buried! And let not doubt forget your graves!
Petition, weeping heart, on faithful knee,
For greater bonds than blood shall asking forge:
Love's precious deed shall follow sacred lips.
You, having Him, shall have His gifts as well.
Go, seek a temple; kneel, and tell thy Lord
All you need done. Let Jesus do it all.
Henceforth, all goodness in His Name beseech;
With simple heart profoundly call on Christ;
For whosoever asketh, goeth home
In harvest time, each " whatsoever" done!
Ask on undoubting, daily, need by need;
Believe with fulness of God-armoured faith;
Expecting answers at appointed times;
AND, JESUS THANK WHILE HOPE AWAITS THESE DEEDS.
This is the Bible message, Friend, to YOU;
ASK IN HIS NAME. THAT, JESUS, THEN WILL DO!
