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.

My heart is fixed, eternal God

Experience of Christ As Everything

English519
1
My heart is fixed, eternal God,
Fixed on Thee, fixed on Thee;
And my immortal choice is made,
Christ for me, Christ for me;
He is my prophet, priest, and king,
Who did for me salvation bring,
And while I’ve breath I mean to sing,
Christ for me, Christ for me.
2
In Him I see the Godhead shine,
Christ for me, Christ for me;
He is the majesty divine,
Christ for me, Christ for me;
The Father’s well-beloved Son,
Co-partner of His royal throne,
Who bore the guilt of man alone,
Christ for me, Christ for me.
3
Let others boast of heaps of gold,
Christ for me, Christ for me;
His riches never can be told,
Christ for me, Christ for me;
Your gold will waste and wear away,
Your honors perish in a day;
My portion never can decay,
Christ for me, Christ for me.
4
In pining sickness, or in health,
Christ for me, Christ for me;
In deepest poverty or wealth,
Christ for me, Christ for me;
And in that all-important day,
When I the summons must obey,
And pass from this dark world away,
Christ for me, Christ for me.

I was saved in. 1959 at Bethesda Gospel Chapel, Helensburgh, Scotland! I had been brought up in the Free Church of Scotland, in Cardross. I was well versed in the singing of the Psalms, from the Scottish Psalter and Scottish Hymnal! I first attended the youth meeting at Bethesda, and loved their hymns, and sacred songs! While there, I fell in love with "My heart is fixed eternal God, fixed on thee, fixed on the, and my immortal choice is made, Christ for me". The Gospel Message preached at Bethesda, had such an effect on me, that I accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as my Saviour, and thus born again! , and ever since, having sung it so many times, I still remember the words and the tune! It is the constant reminder, of the Gospel Message, that I first heard at Bethesda, and it is also, my testimony of how I was so wondrously saved!

On the night my granddad was saved, at a tent meeting, this hymn was sung and his family recalled how he sang this hymn most of the night, afterwards! His was a true conversion and following on from that he lead the rest of his family to the Lord. I owe a lot to him.

I always enjoy singing this hymn simply because it brings me back to the realization that Christ is the only important thing in the universe. Everything else, be it money, education, people, the future, whatever - "it will waste and wear away."

I pray that the Lord would allow this to be my constant experience: "My heart is fixed, eternal God, fixed on Thee, fixed on Thee; And my immortal choice is made - Christ for me! Christ for me! He is my Prophet, Priest, and King, who did for me salvation bring; And while I've breath I mean to sing - Christ for me! Christ for me!"
