À propos de la notation chiffrée

La notation chiffrée (aussi appelée Jianpu, 简谱) note chaque son de la mélodie par un chiffre de 1 à 7 plutôt que par une note sur une portée. Le chiffre indique la position de la note dans la gamme du chant -- pas sa hauteur exacte -- de sorte que la même mélodie garde toujours la même apparence, quelle que soit la tonalité chantée.

Au sein d'une même octave, les chiffres 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 correspondent aux syllabes familières do ré mi fa sol la si. Un point au-dessus d'un chiffre le fait monter d'une octave ; un point en dessous le fait descendre d'une octave -- l'absence de point correspond à l'octave médiane, telle qu'écrite.

Un chiffre seul dure un temps. Un tiret (-) juste après un chiffre prolonge cette même note d'un temps supplémentaire. Un trait sous un chiffre le raccourcit au contraire -- un trait vaut un demi-temps, deux traits un quart de temps. Un 0 est un silence : une pause d'un temps.

L'indication en haut de la partition, par exemple "1=C" ou "1=Ab", précise la hauteur du degré 1 (le "do"). Un chant en mineur porte plutôt l'indication "6=X" -- le degré 6 (le "la") est alors la véritable tonique. Les noms d'accords indiqués au-dessus des notes (comme "C" ou "G7") restent toujours écrits avec leurs noms de lettres habituels, jamais sous forme de chiffres.

Par exemple, sous l'indication "1=C", les chiffres 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 correspondent aux notes C D E F G A B. Sous l'indication "1=G", ces mêmes chiffres correspondent plutôt à G A B C D E F# -- même forme, tonalité différente.

Praise to the Lord, the Almighty

Praise of the Lord His Goodness

English166
1
Praise to the Lord, the Almighty,
the King of creation!
O my soul, praise Him, for He is thy
health and salvation!
All ye who hear,
Now to His temple draw near;
Sing now in glad adoration!
2
Praise to the Lord, who o’er all
things so wondrously reigneth,
Who, as on wings of an eagle,
uplifteth, sustaineth.
Hast thou not seen
How thy desires all have been
Granted in what He ordaineth?
3
Praise to the Lord, who hath fearfully,
wondrously, made thee!
Health hath vouchsafed and, when
heedlessly falling, hath stayed thee.
What need or grief
Ever hath failed of relief?
Wings of His mercy did shade thee.
4
Praise to the Lord, who doth prosper
thy work and defend thee,
Who from the heavens the streams of
His mercy doth send thee.
Ponder anew
What the Almighty can do,
Who with His love doth befriend thee.
5
Praise to the Lord! Oh, let all that
is in me adore Him!
All that hath life and breath, come
now with praises before Him!
Let the Amen
Sound from His people again;
Gladly for aye we adore Him.

This hymn struck a note of nostalgia in me this evening as we sang it during our family devotion. It happened to be our processional song during our wedding some 25 years ago. I appreciate the Lord for the inspiration.

Haven't sung this in many years. Learned this song as a little girl in the Baptist Church. I love old hymns and as I get older, I find myself resorting to embracing them more during worship

Every time the Lord gives me something I love and have long prayed for, I just sing this hymn over and over. The line "Hast thou not seen how thy heart's, desires have been granted in what he ordaineth" feels like water down my soul

Among the most remarkable DESIRES has granted: marriage, children, job, home. Yes the Lord grants not only our needs but also DESIRES

I woke up this morning humming the hymn and decided to search for it and then found it here. The hymn formed part of my early formative years as a believer.

Thank You for having it here.

I remember being so touched by the words in this song 18 years ago and then again about a year and a half ago: His keeping power, His uplifting power, His sustaining power, His never-failing power. Praise to the Lord, I am impressed again and relieved that God holds true and trustworthy.

This song reminds me of another line from a song I enjoyed at around the same time (approx 1. 5 years ago) as this hymn:

"How wonderful, I never knew, that I could trust Thee so, that Thou would'st be so much to me in all the way I go. That every need Thou would'st supply and all my longings satisfy."

These old hymns are deeply stabilizing and encouraging to me.
