I'm a rock/blues/jazz guitarist musician from the United States. But I know beauty when I see it, and hear it. I wouldn't be able to say enough to describe how heavenly this is. Words can do no justice. Thank you, so much for posting this. Music like this needs to be heard more, much, much more.
I remember when your choir would come to Ottawa, hosted by the Ottawa Welsh Choral Society, when I was a boy. We hosted two of your members multiple time. The hospitality was so graciously returned when we visited Wales. After all these many years I still have the tie that was given to me. To find this video and hear the singing brought back wonderful memories and tears to my eyes. God bless you all for continuing the amazing tradition of Welsh male choirs.

@1:39 I thought my heart would burst - the sheer musicality of the chords as they open up the second verse...........!!
This was one of my favourite hymns when I was in school.
One of my friend passed away today in Wrexham.. He was the proudest Welshman I ever knew. Rest in Peace Daffyd Wynne Taylor. Nos da.
My family are Roberts from Wales waaaay back in the day. Hearing welsh singing always makes me cry. Beautiful. Hiraeth.
me too, even though I'm just an Asian immigrant who grew up in Rhondda
My wife's family are also Roberts, from Bangor. Sadly, she does not speak a word of Welsh, so I have to make up for her.
Roberts from pontybluden(ponplythen) roots
Singing in the blood and proud of my heritage

I can't explain why, but this song always has me in tears.
Welsh are the very best at singing!
Such sweet melancholy. Heart-rending!!! And beautiful too!!!
amazing
Lovely beyond words: God bless you all!
I’m English and probably shouldn’t even be here but can I say this is a beautiful hymn sung beautifully.
Gwlad fy ngeni, Cymru D
Hyfred iawn!
Ah, finally found one that has the sound of the valley, the ground under, and sun. (Again, shame about the piano) but moving none the less.
cerddoriaeth brydferth!
