-O'r Fath Gyfaill Ydyw'r Iesu,

0:03:430:03:46

-Author Mari George.

0:03:460:03:48

-You're an author by vocation, Mari.

-What do you write?

0:03:510:03:55

-I've written for television, Pobol

-Y Cwm being the most well known...

0:03:560:04:00

-..amongst other S4C programmes.

0:04:000:04:03

-I've written novels

-but poetry is my first love.

0:04:030:04:06

-I'm sure it's exciting being part of

-such a famous television programme.

0:04:060:04:11

-Yes, there's no telling

-what will happen in Cwmderi!

0:04:120:04:15

-I relish a challenge.

0:04:150:04:17

-Have you ever written poetry?

0:04:170:04:19

-Have you ever written poetry?

-

-Yes, in both Welsh and English.

0:04:190:04:21

-Where does

-your inspiration come from?

0:04:220:04:24

-It varies. I'm inspired

-by many different themes.

0:04:250:04:28

-Since becoming a mother, children

-play a central role in my poetry.

0:04:290:04:33

-Is faith central in your life?

0:04:330:04:35

-Yes, it is.

-It's been part of my upbringing.

0:04:360:04:39

-I'm a member

-of Tabernacle Chapel, Bridgend.

0:04:390:04:43

-I've been going there

-since childhood.

0:04:430:04:46

-I didn't attend

-while I was at university...

0:04:460:04:49

-..because there were

-better things to do on a weekend!

0:04:490:04:52

-But I'm keen for my children to have

-the same upbringing as I had.

0:04:520:04:56

-What prompted you to return

-to chapel after an absence?

0:04:570:05:01

-The children

-started asking questions like...

0:05:010:05:04

-.."Why has God created bad people?"

0:05:050:05:08

-I thought they'd find the answers

-in chapel through biblical stories.

0:05:080:05:13

-Is Tabernacle's congregation

-made up of people...

0:05:130:05:17

-..who, like yourself,

-have returned to the fold?

0:05:170:05:20

-Yes, there are a few of us.

-Many are parents themselves.

0:05:200:05:24

-The Sunday school is thriving,

-thanks to people's enthusiasm.

0:05:240:05:28

-The next piece, which will be sung

-by soprano Gail Pearson...

0:08:390:08:43

-..came to light in the 1970s.

0:08:430:08:45

-It's claimed

-that the piece was written...

0:08:460:08:49

-..by 16th-century composer Giulio

-Caccini, though there's no proof.

0:08:490:08:54

-Some even claim that the piece

-actually originated in the 1970s.

0:08:540:08:59

-It's inspirational, all the same.

0:08:590:09:02

0:13:310:13:35

0:13:350:13:37

-Lovely to meet you.

0:13:380:13:41

-Tell me

-about the content of your songs.

0:13:420:13:45

-My songs

-tend to be written about life...

0:13:450:13:49

-..and life experiences.

0:13:490:13:51

-I also mention my faith in my songs.

0:13:510:13:56

-It's a way of expressing...

0:13:560:13:58

-..what's going on in my life,

-the ups and downs.

0:13:590:14:02

-It's a way

-of getting things off my chest.

0:14:020:14:06

-You play acoustic guitar...

0:14:070:14:09

-..and you're a singer songwriter.

0:14:090:14:11

-How would you describe your sound?

0:14:120:14:14

-How would you describe your sound?

-

-Bluesy with a bit more soul.

0:14:140:14:17

-When people ask me that question,

-I tell them I'm just having fun.

0:14:170:14:22

-If I have fun and people like it,

-then it's a bonus.

0:14:220:14:25

-You say your songs are about

-life experiences and your faith.

0:14:250:14:30

-Can you elaborate on that?

0:14:300:14:32

-My relationship with God

-is a big thing in my life.

0:14:320:14:36

-That's what I write about.

0:14:360:14:38

-What are you going to sing for us?

0:14:380:14:40

-I'm performing a different version

-of Arglwydd Arwain Trwy'r Anialwch.

0:14:410:14:46

-It's an American hymn tune

-called Sovereign Grace.

0:14:460:14:52

-It's very different

-but nice at the same time.

0:14:520:14:55

-I like singing it, this is the first

-time it's been sung in Welsh...

0:14:560:15:00

-..to this new tune.

-the oceans in his hands?

0:15:140:15:20

-# Who has numbered

-every grain of sand?

0:15:200:15:25

-tremble at his voice

0:15:260:15:31

0:16:220:16:27

-# Who can teach the one

-who knows all things?

0:18:500:18:52

-On Sunday morning,

-it's easy to lie in a warm bed

0:18:520:18:56

-And deny that which I believe

0:18:560:18:58

-Or get up late and

-catch sight of myself in the mirror

0:18:580:19:01

-A shadow of the woman

-I was the night before

0:19:010:19:03

-Searching within

-for the proud Virgin Mary

0:19:030:19:07

-Back then, the metal star was gold

0:19:080:19:10

-The story on the back of my hand

-and the dolly was alive

0:19:100:19:14

-The empty hall of my teens

0:19:140:19:16

-The words

-were rags upon the wooden floors

0:19:160:19:19

-And the doubts

-hit the collection box

0:19:190:19:22

-And Mary's story created walls

0:19:230:19:25

-But it's difficult lying in bed

-today, starless on a Sunday morning

0:19:250:19:30

-As you begin to stir

0:19:300:19:32

-So I'll venture again

-across the wooden floors

0:19:330:19:35

-With you in my arms

-to sing a hymn and offer a prayer

0:19:360:19:39

-And when we raise our heads

0:19:400:19:42

-It's possible you'll see

-the light of the new day

0:19:430:19:46

-Shining like a golden star

0:19:460:19:48

-And then

-I'll whisper the story in your ear.

0:19:480:19:52

-We end the programme

-with one of our most popular hymns.

0:19:550:19:59

-"O gariad, o gariad

-anfeidrol ei faint

0:19:590:20:02

-"Fod llwch mor annheilwng

-yn cael y fath fraint."

0:20:030:20:06

-I hope you've enjoyed the programme

-and that you'll join us next week.

0:20:060:20:11

-Until then, goodnight.
