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.

Down from His glory

Praise of the Lord His Incarnation

English82
1
Down from His glory,
Ever living story,
My God and Savior came,
And Jesus was His name.
Born in a manger,
To His own a stranger,
A Man of sorrows, tears and agony.
 
O how I love Him! How I adore Him!
My breath, my sunshine, my all in all!
The great Creator became my Savior,
And all God’s fullness dwelleth in Him.
2
What condescension,
Bringing us redemption;
That in the dead of night,
Not one faint hope in sight,
God, gracious, tender,
Laid aside His splendor,
Stooping to woo, to win, to save my soul.
3
Without reluctance,
Flesh and blood His substance
He took the form of man,
Revealed the hidden plan.
O glorious myst’ry,
Sacrifice of Calv’ry,
And now I know Thou art the great “I AM.”

Oh how I love Him and adore Him, He was born in a manger, flesh and blood His substance, He was a Savior, He died in the cross. I love the song I've heard after Typhoon Yolanda. It's a good song. It gives me happiness. It helps me remember the birth and death of Jesus. Oh Lord Jesus. Amen!

Satan has managed to remove these songs from the church, replacing them with shallow, irreverent songs with bad theology. Hence the Church has become weak, ineffective. Worship has become mundane.

My wife and I sing this song as a duet, she adds a little flare but we keep the basic music in tact. It's a great hymn that few people know about. Bless Mr. Booth for putting this to song.

The most Christ-centered song ever told. It declares about the glorious God who decided to become human to save His elect people. My prayers to all the composers in our era to write like this amazing song. To God is the Glory!

The last line in the last verse says I AM. This was in Exo. 3:14 - And God said to Moses, I AM WHO I AM. And He said, Thus you shall say to the children of Israel,  I AM has sent me to you. Then in John 18:6 - When therefore He (Jesus) said to them, I am, they drew back and fell to the ground. Jesus claim to be not only the son but also the very God himself

The divine title I am denotes that God is the One who is self-existing and ever-existing and who depends on nothing apart from Himself.

My day would not start well if I did not sing this song, and I would not go to bed at night feeling happy if I did not sing it. I do not think there is a song on the face of the earth that trills my heart like this.
