Über die Zahlennotation

Die Zahlennotation (auch Jianpu oder 简谱 genannt) schreibt jede Melodienote als Zahl von 1 bis 7 statt als Note auf einem Notensystem. Die Zahl zeigt die Stellung der Note in der Tonleiter des Liedes -- nicht ihre genaue Tonhöhe --, sodass dieselbe Melodie unabhängig von der gesungenen Tonart gleich aussieht.

Innerhalb einer Oktave entsprechen die Zahlen 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 den bekannten Solmisationssilben Do Re Mi Fa Sol La Ti. Ein Punkt über einer Zahl hebt sie um eine Oktave an; ein Punkt darunter senkt sie um eine Oktave ab -- ohne Punkt bleibt es bei der mittleren, so geschriebenen Oktave.

Eine einzelne Zahl dauert einen Schlag. Ein Bindestrich (-) direkt nach einer Zahl hält dieselbe Note einen weiteren Schlag lang. Ein Strich unter einer Zahl verkürzt sie dagegen -- ein Strich ist ein halber Schlag, zwei Striche ein viertel Schlag. Eine 0 ist eine Pause: ein Schlag Stille.

Die Angabe oben auf dem Notenblatt, zum Beispiel "1=C" oder "1=Ab", zeigt, auf welcher Tonhöhe die Stufe 1 ("Do") liegt. Ein Lied in Moll trägt stattdessen die Angabe "6=X" -- Stufe 6 ("La") ist dann der eigentliche Grundton. Akkordsymbole über den Noten (wie "C" oder "G7") werden immer mit ihren gewohnten Buchstabennamen geschrieben, nie als Zahlen.

Bei der Angabe "1=C" klingen die Zahlen 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 als C D E F G A B. Bei "1=G" klingen dieselben Zahlen dagegen als G A B C D E F# -- gleiche Form, andere Tonart.

The love of God is greater far

Worship of the Father His Love

English28
1
The love of God is greater far
Than tongue or pen can ever tell.
It goes beyond the highest star
And reaches to the lowest hell.
The guilty pair, bowed down with care,
God gave His Son to win;
His erring child He reconciled
And pardoned from his sin.
 
O love of God, how rich and pure!
How measureless and strong!
It shall forevermore endure—
The saints’ and angels’ song.
2
When hoary time shall pass away,
And earthly thrones and kingdoms fall;
When men who here refuse to pray,
On rocks and hills and mountains call;
God’s love, so sure, shall still endure,
All measureless and strong;
Redeeming grace to Adam’s race—
The saints’ and angels’ song.
3
Could we with ink the ocean fill,
And were the skies of parchment made;
Were every stalk on earth a quill,
And every man a scribe by trade;
To write the love of God above
Would drain the ocean dry;
Nor could the scroll contain the whole,
Though stretched from sky to sky.

This song has so rich a message that speaks to me afresh everytime am listening, singing or reading it. It's a complete sermon that speaks volumes of the love of God. It goes beyond the highest star to the lowest hell. We are always engulfed in His enduring love.

Amen

I heard the last verse was found written on the wall of a person who was in the room of an insane asylum. It was written by the person who was the patient in the room who had just passed away. It was mentioned in the sermon of the minister who was preaching that night of my visit to that church. The minister said; "it is such an encouragement to me that a poor patient in an insane asylum apparently found the Lord evidently just weeks before he died. And wrote about his glorious experience on the wall of his hospital room ".

Rev. Branton, that wouldn't surprise me one bit about the demented man! I think I've heard that story before. The love of God can definitely reach that far. Were we not all demented in our own sinful lives before Jesus?

I heard the wonderful story of how the lyrics were written on the radio station, BBN (Bible Broadcasting Network). It really touched my heart!! However, I cannot remember all the details. Do you have that story and can you share it? I would so appreciate it!

Indeed...... what a great love!!! This love can not be found in mere flesh but in the Lord and saviour Jesus Christ.

No greater love hath no man than this than when a man lay down his life for his friend!!!

The last verse draws such a picture of the vastness of our God’s love. So much so, in fact, I have yet to read that verse out loud without crying.

This song came to me from memory as I sat down at the piano. It has flooded my heart and mind for several days now. The lyrics are POWERFUL and TRUE. Nothing can separate us from the love of God.
