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.

Naught have I gotten but what I received

Assurance and Joy of Salvation Saved by Grace

English311
1
Naught have I gotten but what I received;
Grace hath bestowed it since I have believed;
Boasting excluded, pride I abase;
I’m only a sinner saved by grace!
 
Only a sinner saved by grace!
Only a sinner saved by grace!
This is my story, to God be the glory,
I’m only a sinner saved by grace!
2
Once I was foolish, and sin ruled my heart,
Causing my footsteps from God to depart;
Jesus hath found me, happy my case;
I now am a sinner saved by grace!
3
Tears unavailing, no merit had I;
Mercy had saved me, or else I must die;
Sin had alarmed me, fearing God’s face;
But now I’m a sinner saved by grace!
4
Suffer a sinner whose heart overflows,
Loving his Savior to tell what he knows;
Once more to tell it, would I embrace—
I’m only a sinner saved by grace!

Tears unavailing, no merit had I;
Mercy had saved me, or else I must die;
Sin had alarmed me, fearing God's face;
But now I'm a sinner saved by grace!

Perhaps a year or two ago, the Lord told me that there are two descriptive words that begin with the letters “EXH“ in English. They can both describe you at the end of the day, depending on what you chose. The words are exhilarated and exhausted. If you trust God‘s grace through your day and receive the abundance of grace, you will reign in life. Everything will seem miraculous and easy, like the doors that opened on their own as PETER was taken out of the jail before he was supposed to be executed by Herod. If you try to do it yourself trying to “be a good Christian“, you will be exhausted. This is also what the Lord means when he says: “not by might nor by power, but by my spirit”. This song with its rhythm, light melody, and exuberant praise of God’s grace seems to have that exact same feeling to it.

This wonderful old hymn has been running through my memory this morning. The longer I live, the more I realize just how true the words of this old hymn are for me. I thank God for His unspeakable gift: Salvation through Jesus Christ alone! I've had a long life, and as each day passes, I realize ever more clearly just what a sinner I am and how amazing and beautiful is the grace of my Savior. "What wonderous love is this, O my soul, O my soul!..." I surely am "only a sinner saved by grace..."

these words are going through my mind so often lately; mornings ; or evenings; and I am so thankfull when I do start singing it as I am only a sinner saved by grace: not by works; but my father's grace and love: I pray I love others the same: it is difficult at times; but with God's help it is doable:

God bless everyone stay safe; and healthy
