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.

If I gained the world, but lost the Savior

Gospel General

Neue Melodien1079
1
If I gained the world, but lost the Savior,
Were my life worth living for a day?
Could my yearning heart find rest and comfort
In the things that soon must pass away?
If I gained the world, but lost the Savior,
Would my gain be worth the lifelong strife?
Are all earthly pleasures worth comparing
For a moment with a Christ-filled life?
2
Had I wealth and love in fullest measure,
And a name revered both far and near,
Yet no hope beyond, no harbor waiting,
Where my storm-tossed vessel I could steer;
If I gained the world, but lost the Savior,
Who endured the cross and died for me,
Could then all the world afford a refuge,
Whither, in my anguish, I might flee?
3
O what emptiness!—without the Savior
’Mid the sins and sorrows here below!
And eternity, how dark without Him!
Only night and tears and endless woe!
What, though I might live without the Savior,
When I come to die, how would it be?
O to face the valley’s gloom without Him!
And without Him all eternity!
4
O the joy of having all in Jesus!
What a balm the broken heart to heal!
Ne’er a sin so great, but He’ll forgive it,
Nor a sorrow that He does not feel!
If I have but Jesus, only Jesus,
Nothing else in all the world beside—
O then everything is mine in Jesus;
For my needs and more He will provide.

Oh how need to gain the Lord and not this world. If we gain this world and lost our Savior we dont know if our life is worth living for a day. Because only in Him and to Him we live our life worth living. We find our rest and comfort in Him who will never pass away unlike many things in this world that will pass away...Oh Lord Jesus...May we gain the Lord, saints...

Praise the Lord we had such a Wonderful Savior!!

Nothing can satisfy our lives without Him. Every day we're living with is not meaningful, when we don't enjoy our Savior!! The world is not worthy to have us!!

Our lives will be of no worth when we don't have Him!! All things are just in vain if we don't have Him. Nothing will be worth comparing with a Christ- filled life!!

Oh Lord! This hymn really touched me & really reminded me that all things are just vanity if it is not of God! Often we are occupied with other things and our first love is no longer for the Lord. The Lord doesn't just want our first place, He wants our second place, third place, OUR WHOLE BEING!

Oh how we need to praise the Lord! I really enjoyed this hymn because as a young person, you still have a lot of things to go through and experience. There's so much things happening around us. At times, you are so busy with your things, it ends up that we don't really enjoy the Lord. But Hallelujah! This song was such a reminder for me! Even if I gained everything in the world but lost the Savior, there is no meaning in our lives! This hymn should be a daily reminder to us! We need to live by the Lord each and every day! He is all in all!

"What a joy of having all in Jesus" it's really a joy of having Him in our life... I don't want anything...I just want to gain more of Him day by day...OH LORD JESUS... AMEN

I'm so touch of this song, really if we gained the world and lost the Saviour life is so meaningless. Praise the Lord that He gained us already through His grace we're saved. AMEN!!!

This song really means a lot to me, because as a young person there is so much you can become caught up in. Then the reality hits you and you finally see that If I was to gain the whole world, but loose the Lord, it would be for naught. Praise the Lord, let's bring His kingdom back!

"O what emptiness without the Savior!" That's really true. All things are void, false. Only God is real; He fills all in all. "O the joy of having all in Jesus!" What a joy! When we have Jesus, we have all things!

I like this song because throughout my experience, I realize that nothing in this world is more worthy than our Lord, Jesus Christ. He can satisfy our every need. Also through out my experience, I notice that it is not worthy to gain the world, but lost the Savior. No matter what we do in this world. They all end up with an empty feeling inside us. Only Christ can satisfy this hunger. Once we receive Christ as our Savior, it all leads to the satisfaction, joyful, sweet feeling.
