0:03:260:03:29

0:05:290:05:33

0:05:350:05:38

0:05:390:05:44

0:05:440:05:47

-"Rho im yr hedd na wyr y byd amdano

-Now then, just a word of praise.

0:12:140:12:17

-I listen carefully

-to Dechrau Canu every week.

0:12:190:12:23

-This is the best performance

-I've heard for a while.

0:12:250:12:29

-Most definitely.

0:12:290:12:30

-You'll find one hymn tune

-with the most wonderful words...

0:12:310:12:35

-..on pages twenty-six

-and twenty-seven.

0:12:350:12:38

-You'll notice that the composer

-is Megan Watts Hughes.

0:12:390:12:43

-From Dowlais.

0:12:440:12:46

-She was a great singer.

0:12:460:12:50

-The music and the words

-combine so perfectly.

0:12:500:12:57

-I wonder if she wrote the hymn tune

-to suit the words?

0:12:570:13:00

-Listen to Elfed's words.

0:13:010:13:03

-Here he talks of the lamp.

0:13:030:13:05

-"Pan fyddo achos Iesu

-yn eiddil a di-glod

0:13:070:13:10

-"Pan losgo'r lamp yn isel

0:13:100:13:12

-"Wrth ddisgwyl iddo ddod."

0:13:130:13:15

-He used the image of the lamp

-in another hymn.

0:13:150:13:20

-"Arglwydd Iesu dysg im gerdded

-drwy y byd yn ol dy droed

0:13:200:13:25

-"Chollodd neb y ffordd i'r nefoedd

-wrth dy ganlyn di erioed.

0:13:250:13:30

-"Mae yn olau

-ond i'm weld dy wyneb di."

0:13:300:13:34

-The lamp is very important to us.

0:13:360:13:38

-On your feet, please.

0:13:390:13:41

-Plenty of intensity and thought

-when you sing.

0:13:410:13:44

-Please turn to hymn number 547.

0:16:040:16:07

-It's a familiar hymn to us all.

0:16:100:16:12

-The words were written by Thomas

-Jones of Denbigh, as he's known...

0:16:130:16:17

-..though he was born in Caerwys.

0:16:180:16:20

-He was a remarkable man.

0:16:200:16:23

-He was a theologian, historian...

0:16:230:16:26

-..scholar and literary writer

-as well as a publisher.

0:16:260:16:31

-He was a multi-talented man.

0:16:310:16:34

-The words are taken from Job.

0:16:350:16:37

-Those of you familiar

-with the Messiah oratorio...

0:16:370:16:41

-..and the soprano solo,

-Mi Wn Fod Fy Mhrynwr Yn Fyw...

0:16:410:16:45

-..you'll know

-there's conviction in these words.

0:16:460:16:49

-The tune

-was composed by D Emlyn Evans...

0:16:490:16:52

-..a native of Penrallt Wen,

-Trewen, Newcastle Emlyn...

0:16:520:16:57

-..as his name suggests.

0:16:570:16:59

-Or rather his middle name.

-Another remarkable man.

0:17:000:17:03

-He started his career

-as a traveller and tailor...

0:17:030:17:07

-..who made suits.

0:17:070:17:09

-It's a familiar trait

-in our hymnary...

0:17:090:17:12

-..and is typical of our hymnists.

0:17:120:17:15

-They were talented amateurs.

0:17:150:17:17

-This man went from being a tailor

-to a musician.

0:17:170:17:21

-He was a prolific composer as well.

0:17:210:17:24

-Please sing

-with the same conviction as Job...

0:17:240:17:27

-..and the same conviction expressed

-by Thomas Jones of Denbigh.

0:17:280:17:32

-Please stand.

0:17:330:17:34

-Before our final hymn, we'd like

-to thank you for joining us...

0:20:380:20:42

-..during this series.

0:20:430:20:44

-Next week, Nia Roberts looks back...

0:20:440:20:47

-..at some of the performances

-we heard during the series.

0:20:470:20:51

-Join us then.

0:20:520:20:54

-We head to Capel y Priordy

-in Carmarthen for our final hymn.

0:20:540:20:58

-"Mae'r Iesu'n fuddugol

-a'i bobl gaiff fyw."

0:20:580:21:02

-Until next time, cheerio.
