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.

Abide with me! fast falls the eventide

Longings For Fellowship with Christ

English370
1
Abide with me! fast falls the eventide;
The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide!
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me.
2
Swift to its close ebbs out life’s little day;
Earth’s joys grow dim, its glories pass away;
Change and decay in all around I see;
O Thou who changest not, abide with me.
3
Come not in terrors, as the King of kings;
But kind and good, with healing in Thy wings:
Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea;
Come, Friend of sinners, thus abide with me.
4
I need Thy presence every passing hour:
What but Thy grace can foil the tempter’s power?
Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, oh, abide with me.
5
I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless:
Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness:
Where is death’s sting? where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if Thou abide with me.

Watching the D-Day 75 remembrance service and singing along with them. Incredible song perfect for the occasion and very reassuring that God and the fallen soldiers are watching too. A great tribute to great heroes.

This was Mahatma Gandhi's favorite him and it was sung daily by him and his flowers at all prayer meetings, in which a prayer from each religion was recited.

This hymn is really piercing to the heart and brings out so clearly and comfortingly the need for sinners like me to hold onto the abiding mercy of the Lord Jesus who alone forgives sins in the mighty power of His Father's grace.

To the composer I say, thank you.

You are missing a verse. The sixth verse is
Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes
shine thro’ the gloom, and point me to the skies.
Heaven morning breaks and earths vain shadows flee
In life and death oh Lord abide with me

This song is so inspiring. When the going gets tough, I turn to it and it comforts me.

When I do I become so emotional. I remember my mum (may her soul rest in peace). It was one of her favorite hymns and she taught me to sing it.

Indeed when darkness deepens, the Lord abides with us.

I like this hymn of fellowship, with the Lord Jesus Christ, and I know it's often sung at funerals. But the Lord Jesus is the friend of sinners, and sinners ( like I did) can be forgiven and become children of God as they in faith ask God to forgive them and through His eternal love be born again into His family (Romans 8 verse 15 to 17).

Although I rarely sing it, my first pastor told me it was a hymn of Christian closeness to God as the Christian seeks to walk close to Hum daily. Maybe the only part that hints at death is the start of verse 2. But if we read closer we find that, with sin dealt with on our repentance and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, the Saviour of those who are born again, then He draws close to us, despite the darkness of the devil's wiles.

If this hymn were purely for funerals, then we would not have many passing hours to live in. No. Instead, in fellowship with God in Christ (1 John 1 verse 7 to 9), we find that our Good Shepherd is our guide throughout our discipled days.

With God on our side (Romans 8 verse 31) we can fear no foe, for greater is He that is in us than He that is in the world (1 John). As per 1 Corinthians 15, in Christ we have the victory over sin and death.

Thanks be to God for His unspeakable gift (2 Corinthians 9 verse 15).
