HYMN XII.

“_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?
