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.

Master, speak! Thy servant heareth

Study of the Word Seeking for the Word

English808
1
Master, speak! Thy servant heareth,
Waiting for Thy gracious word,
Longing for Thy voice that cheereth
Master, let it now be heard.
I am list’ning, Lord, for Thee;
What hast Thou to say to me?
2
Often through my heart is pealing
Many another voice than Thine,
Many an unwilled echo stealing
From the walls of this Thy shrine.
Let Thy longed-for accents fall;
Master, speak! and silence all.
3
Master, speak! though least and lowest,
Let me not unheard depart;
Master, speak! for oh, Thou knowest
All the yearning of my heart.
Knowest all its truest need;
Speak! and make me blest indeed.
4
Master, speak! and make me ready,
When Thy voice is truly heard,
With obedience glad and steady,
Still to follow every word
I am listening, Lord, for Thee:
Master, speak, oh, speak to me!
5
Speak to me by name, O Master,
Let me know it is to me;
Speak, that I may follow faster,
With a step more firm and free,
Where the Shepherd leads the flock
In the shadow of the Rock!

This has has always been a song of solace to me especially when I am down. Whenever it sounds at the stall at St. Anthony's Church on Sundays, I feel very fulfilled.

What powerful words! The song just dropped into my spirit this morning to sing and I had to look for the actual words! Father, speak to me amid the changing tides.

Master, speak! Thy servant heareth,
Waiting for Thy gracious word,
Longing for Thy voice that cheereth
Master, let it now be heard.
I am list’ning, Lord, for Thee;
What hast Thou to say to me?

Thank you Father for such comforting words. May this song continue to be a blessing to generations to come and bring comfort to any who's uncertain about things and looking to hear from you for direction.

This song was one of my favourite song through my childhood and teen days. Singing this song those days in Faith Tabernacle church choir made me to think about the young Samuel Ben-Elkanah living with the (Pastor) High Priest Eli and sleeping in the temple, and God came and spoke to him. And he answered; "Speak Lord, for thy servant heareth!" It was so edifying.

I first heard and sung this song when I was in my senior 1 in 2002 during our inter house music and dance competition.

It has been sang again in church today and it has truly revealed God's true will for my life. I am reminded to listen and follow through His voice. Steadiness is when you obey in what He alone tells you to do.

I pray we all live in obedience to the voice of God and we will celebrate His goodness.

God bless you all.

I first saw and sang this song when I was in my teens in a church fellowship, then not born again but the words stuck to my spirit and would reverberate in my heart frequently. I could not find it for years. Over 35 years after and now born again, the longing had not ceased. Today, just occurred to me to search the Internet and boooooooooooooooooommm!

Thank you so much; what a treasure this song is to my soul at this time. God bless you all, in Jesus Christ name.
