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.

Jesus, Fountain of my days

Experience of Christ As Everything

English525
1
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!

Recently, was listening to the conference on our culture being replaced for the One New Man and our brother shared that every locality, and actually every saint should be a miniature of the New Jerusalem. At first I didn't quite comprehend this word, but then I came to this hymn. It says, no more night and no more sea.

When we allow Christ to replace us with Himself we become filled with Him unto the fullness of God. This fullness is the expression of the Triune God, thus we can become the New Jerusalem. In the New Jerusalem there is no night or sea. The New Jerusalem is just the One New Man; so when Christ is our light, rest, peace, newness, good land, and life, we become a miniature of the New Jerusalem. Hallelujah!

I despaired the storm to brave

Till Thy footprints touched the wave

.. Remembering how Peter was called by the Lord asking him to come down from the boat and come to the Lord by stepping into the water while their boat being battered by the waves..

We should not be afraid of the pamdemic (strong, raging winds).. We should not be disturbed by them... Our destiny is in the Lord’s hand, there is no reason for us to be afraid of anything... We just have to obey His voice.. We just trust and believe in Him! He will carry us through!
