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.

I need Jesus, my need I now confess

Longings For Christ

English353
1
I need Jesus, my need I now confess;
No friend like Him in times of deep distress;
I need Jesus, the need I gladly own;
Though some may bear their load alone,
Yet I need Jesus.
 
I need Jesus, I need Jesus,
I need Jesus every day;
Need Him in the sunshine hour,
Need Him when the storm-clouds low’r;
Every day along my way,
Yes, I need Jesus.
2
I need Jesus, I need a friend like Him,
A friend to guide when paths of life are dim;
I need Jesus, when foes my soul assail;
Alone I know I can but fail,
So I need Jesus.
3
I need Jesus, I need Him to the end;
No one like Him, He is the sinner’s friend;
I need Jesus, no other friend will do;
So constant, kind, so strong and true,
Yes, I need Jesus.

I love this song! I heard it in chapel in Bible college almost 50 years ago. The words and melody come to me every so often. I sang it to myself tonight.... I needed it.

I have walked with my wonderful Saviour for more than 67 years, and He is more precious to me then ever. This hymn has been a blessing and an inspiration to me over the years. I certainly need Him as much now as ever before. He truly is a friend who sticks closer than a brother. Thank You Lord Jesus.

Haven't sung this song in church in years now but I just love the chorus and it comes to me intermittently through the years. Thank You Holy Spirit for bringing it to my mind and heart!

Yes I need Him every single hour of my life. Without Him I am absolutely nothing.

I had sung this beloved hymn as a child and then forgot about it. The Lord brought it back to my mind last month after an interval of almost 60 years. I will soon be sharing it with our senior adult Christian fellowship, most of whom are in their 90s, and wouldn't be surprised that some of them would know it. I appreciate the humble text which expresses that without Him we are nothing. The melody is easily sung because it is mostly stepwise and has the range of one octave. Thanks to Jane Palmer Baker for her comments cited below from more than 10 years ago.

A friend of mine was walking behind my father in his home, and hearing him singing, videoed him. He was singing this song, which I had never heard before, but it was very appropriate, as my sister just went home to Heaven after more than 50 years of fighting rheumatiod arthritis. The words "no friend like Him in times of deep distress" were especially telling. Thank you for making this available!
