-On tonight's programme we'll revisit

-..for the cymanfa ganu

0:00:440:00:47

-..to proclaim the arrival of the

-National Eisteddfod in the county.

0:00:470:00:52

-Our next hymn is a famous one...

0:04:540:04:56

-..written by Gwilym Hiraethog,

-William Rees...

0:04:560:04:59

-..which focuses on Christ's love.

0:04:590:05:02

-It was a popular hymn

-during the Revival...

0:05:020:05:05

-..and is still a firm favourite

-today in our chapels and churches.

0:05:050:05:10

-According to Dr Pennar Davies...

0:05:100:05:12

-.."This is

-the Welsh language's greatest hymn."

0:05:130:05:16

-We'll stand to sing Pennant.

0:05:170:05:19

-William Owen wrote the tune...

0:07:590:08:01

-..and following in tradition...

0:08:020:08:04

-..he composed the hymn

-whilst farming the land.

0:08:040:08:08

-Huw Williams wrote,

-"After farming the field...

0:08:080:08:12

-"..he left the horses and ran

-to the house to write the tune."

0:08:120:08:17

-Does the gallop of the horses

-inspire the lively rhythm...

0:08:180:08:24

-..of the Prysgol melody, who knows?

0:08:240:08:26

-The words

-were written by Ann Griffiths...

0:08:270:08:30

-..someone who had a lust for life.

0:08:300:08:33

-She loved dancing

-and going to the fair.

0:08:330:08:36

-Benjamin Jones preaching...

0:08:360:08:38

-..she was converted and shunned

-all the material things in life...

0:08:390:08:44

-..and dedicated

-herself entirely to Christ.

0:08:440:08:49

-We too shall turn to Christ now

-to sing Prysgol.

0:08:490:08:53
