About Numbered Notation

Numbered Notation (also called Jianpu, 简谱) writes each melody note as a number from 1 to 7 instead of a note on a staff. The number shows the note's position in the song's scale -- not its exact pitch -- so the same tune looks identical no matter what key it's sung in.

Within one octave, the numbers 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 correspond to the familiar do re mi fa sol la ti. A dot above a number raises it an octave higher; a dot below lowers it an octave lower -- no dot means the middle, as-written octave.

A plain number lasts one beat. A dash (-) right after a number holds that same note for one more beat. A line underneath a number shortens it instead -- one line is half a beat, two lines a quarter of a beat. A 0 is a rest: silence for one beat.

The label at the top of the sheet, like "1=C" or "1=Ab", shows which pitch scale degree 1 ("do") is tuned to. A song in a minor key is labeled "6=X" instead -- scale degree 6 ("la") is the true tonic. Chord names printed above the notes (like "C" or "G7") always use their familiar letter names, never numbers.

For example, under a "1=C" heading, the numbers 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 sound as C D E F G A B. Under a "1=G" heading, those very same numbers sound as G A B C D E F# instead -- same shape, different key.

是愛的神作我牧人

經歷神 作牧人

1
是愛的神作我牧人,
祂常餧養,祂常施恩;
祂是屬我,我是屬祂,
何來需要?何來缺乏?
2
祂帶我到嫩草地場,
使我感覺滿足歡暢;
又帶我到平靜溪流,
交通不斷,安息無憂。
3
我時迷路,祂來截回,
再側我心受祂支配;
我常搖動,不甚堅定,
但祂引導,是為己名。
4
何等不明,何等可疑,
怎能行走無所顧忌?
你竿扶持,你杖引領,
你的同在滿我途徑。
5
你使我能大膽誇勝,
敵雖四佈,享恩如恆:
我頭油潤,我杯酒溢,
我神從來不曾吝惜。
6
你的甘甜、奇妙的愛,
測量我的一生年代;
你愛既然永不改變,
我的讚美還要加添。

我时迷路,祂来截回,

再侧我心受祂支配;

我常摇动,不什坚定,

但祂引导,是为己名。

This morning when I was on the floor enjoying the moment with our Lord which has not been done in a while, my heart was touched my eye full of tears and love towards Him. This hymn flows up my mind. He is my beloved Shepherd. When I am lost He comes to lead, when I am being defeated, He is there I am not afraid but proclaim my victory. But all is for His name. I thank the Lord, He is so loving, faithful in His shepherding work. Lord, make me the same as You that I can also be there with the weak ones. Lord, duplicate me to be Your faithful servant.
