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.

Jesus, Fountain of my days

Experience of Christ As Everything

Jesus, Fountain of my days,
Well-spring of my heart’s delight,
Brightness of my morning rays,
Solace of my hours of night;
When I see Thee, I arise
To the hope of cloudless skies.
2
Oh, how weary were the years
Ere Thy form to me was known;
Oh, how gloomy were the fears
When I seemed to be alone;
I despaired the storm to brave
Till Thy footprints touched the wave.
3
But Thy presence on the deep
Calmed the pulses of the sea,
And the waters sank to sleep
In the rest of seeing Thee;
And my once rebellious will
Heard the mandate, Peace, be still!
4
Now Thy will and mine are one,
Heart in heart, and hand in hand;
All the clouds have touched the sun,
And the ships have reached the land;
For Thy love has said to me,
No more night! and No more sea!

This hymn is a biography of a life that experienced God moment by moment, day after day. A good hymn to sing several times alone as loud as you can.

The writer of this hymn is George Matheson. In one of his biographies it says he was engaged to be married at age 20. When he found out he was going blind, he told his fiancé. She decided she could not live with a blind man and called off the wedding. Blind and alone what a broken heart. This hymn may have came out from such suffering and his finding the Lord in such a dark place. We know God’s ways are not our way. Certainly God gained much in this man and passed it on to us in such a beautiful intimate love song.

I was enjoying this hymn this morning with the new tune and turning the tenses from past to present as a heartfelt prayer. Brings the story of the hymn from John 6:18-22 into focus. As we sing we breathe these words into us praying them back to Him with feeling, consideration and worship. Here we sing both with our mind and with our spirit as in 1 Cor 14:15.

Oh, how weary are the years
Ere Thy form to me is known;
Oh, how gloomy are the fears
When I seem to be alone;
I despair the storm to brave
Let Thy footprints touch the wave.
Let Thy presence on the deep
Calm the pulses of the sea,
Let the waters sink to sleep
In the rest of seeing Thee;
And my rebellious will
Hear the mandate, Peace, be still!

George Matheson was born on March 1842, in Glasgow, the most populous city of Scotland. His Father was George Matheson, a merchant and his mother Jane Matheson- they were second cousins.

George was the eldest of eight children. He was blind from his youth. George was educated in Glasgow Academy and the University of Glasgow where he graduated from logic and philosophy. At age 20, he became completely blind but was determined to enter the ministry and studied theology and history.

In 1879, he earned the degree of Doctor of Divinity and became a fellow at Royal Society of Edinburgh.

He died suddenly of a stroke on August 28, 1906 in Edinburgh and is buried with his father and mother in the Glasgow Necropolis. The grave lies near the summit.
