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.

I cried out to Jesus in a time of need and this song filled my heart and soul, I had not given it much thought over the years as I remember it to be the song played when the collection plate was passed in church. Now this song is a big part of my day . Jesus was there with me on the highway last night just as he was when I blew a flat tire on the Gardiner expressway many years ago.

It's time for me to to rise and get back to church where I belong.

This song has been in my head lately. It takes me back to my youth. We sang this song every Sunday in church. Such wonderful memories. I wasn’t aware of the second verse, but remember the first to this day. It comforts me.

Was studying my bible and this hymn just wells up in my spirit.

Don't know if anyone loves hymns like I do. I have a whole lot on my playlist.

Don't stop worshipping and praising God in spirit and truth. Jesus is the way, the truth and the life.
