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.

Fight the good fight with all thy might

Spiritual Warfare Fighting On

1
Fight the good fight with all thy might!
Christ is thy strength, and Christ thy right;
Lay hold on life, and it shall be
Thy joy and crown eternally.
2
Run the straight race through God’s good grace,
Lift up thine eyes, and seek His face;
Life with its way before us lies,
Christ is the path, and Christ the prize.
3
Cast care aside, lean on thy Guide;
His boundless mercy will provide;
Trust, and thy trusting soul shall prove
Christ is its life, and Christ its love.
4
Faint not nor fear, His arms are near,
He changeth not, and thou art dear;
Only believe, and thou shalt see
That Christ is all in all to thee.

My father likes this hymn. I only hope that I am able to ensure this is played hopefully a long time far far away.

I was in our prayer meeting yesterday evening and the 2nd verse came to me, then the 3rd - I had to google it to remember the 1st verse.. Here I am trying to work out what God is saying and the last comment, made yesterday is very similar. We occasionally sing 'hymns' but I can't remember the last time I heard 'Fight the good fight'. I think the focus was on 'lift up thine eyes and seek His face'.

This morning some lines from this hymn came to me from the last two verses. I looked them up and found they from this hymn Fight the good fight. I went to church and found the last hymn that we sang was Fight the good fight, (not a hymn we usually sing) so I'm sure God must be saying something to me.

John Monsell was a gifted Anglican clergyman who could hold his congregation spellbound as he spoke and who advocated "more fervent and joyous" singing in his church. He once said, "We sing, but not as we should, to Him who is the chief among 10,000, the altogether lovely."

This hymn was written to accompany the reading of Ephesians 4:17-32, where Paul outlines the nature of new life in Christ. - Great Songs of Faith by Brown and Norton

This hymn says so much to you and I. We must fight the good fight, as we lay hold on eternal life. And, run the straight race through God's abundant grace, as we lift up our eyes to seek and behold His face. Care must be cast aside whatever betide as we lean on our Guide. Put all our trust in Him, and fear not, but believe. Our Christ is our way and our wonderful, complete Salvation. Hallelujah!

This hymn is important, because it speaks of a believer's life, which is a life of trust in the Lord, and a life in the power of His might. It is a life in faith against all the power of the enemy. It is a life of victory over all the power of the enemy. And, it is a life in union with Christ, and it is not a life apart from Christ. Christ is our strength, our might, our right, our eternal joy and crown, our path, our prize, our life, our love, our Guide, and He is all in all to us.
