Clod i Dduw! - new hymn
booklet
Two ministers of the Presbyterian Church of Wales
have worked together to produce a new bilingual hymn
booklet called Clod i Dduw! (Praise the
Lord!).
Reverend Colin Gordon-Farleigh, minister of St
John's Church, Runcorn, has been writing verse since
he was eight years old. He started to write
hymns more seriously early in 2006, since when I
have written about 250 worship songs, many of which
have now been recorded by various singers and choral groups.
He is now working with Reverend Eirlys Gruffydd, who
was until her recent retirement minister of several
churches in the Wrexham and Mold area, and she has
been busy translating several of Revd
Gordon-Farleigh's hymns into Welsh.
The result is the publication of Clod i Dduw!,
a booklet of eleven new hymns in Welsh and English.
In the spring, a Mold-based choral group will record
the songs.
Clod i Dduw! is available from
www.sheerjoymusic.com or by contacting Revd Gordon-Farleigh (01928 589 210 /
