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.

1
Begone, unbelief,
My Savior is near,
And for my relief
Will surely appear;
By prayer let me wrestle,
And He will perform;
With Christ in the vessel,
I smile at the storm.
2
Though dark be my way,
Since He is my Guide,
’Tis mine to obey,
’Tis His to provide;
Though cisterns be broken,
And creatures all fail,
The word He hath spoken
Shall surely prevail.
3
His love, in time past,
Forbids me to think
He’ll leave me at last
In trouble to sink:
Each sweet Ebenezer
I have in review
Confirms His good pleasure
To help me quite through.
4
Why should I complain
Of want or distress,
Temptation or pain?
He told me no less;
The heirs of salvation,
I know from His Word,
Through much tribulation
Must follow their Lord.
5
How bitter that cup
No heart can conceive,
Which He drank quite up,
That sinners might live!
His way was much rougher
And darker than mine;
Did Christ, my Lord, suffer,
And shall I repine?
6
Since all that I meet
Shall work for my good,
The bitter is sweet,
The medicine, food;
Though painful at present,
’Twill cease before long,
And then, oh, how pleasant
The conqueror’s song!

I have sung this song for so many years being a methodist. Now I attend a charismatic church because that's where my husband fellowship. But this song came to me so strongly as I showered this morning. The message it brought, I haven't had that throughout my 30 years of being a methodist. It's such a blessing. Thank You Jesus.

Why should I complain of want or distress, temptation or pain. Oh how I love You Jesus.

This cup that I drink

Is heavy and tart

I wonder and think

Why I must be part

But then I remember

He gave me His all

So I like my Jesus

Will answer God's call

What a wonderful and inspiring song. I have known it since my childhood and it has been a refreshing companion ever since. The words of it - how heavy, how spiritual, how true! The composer, like many Hymn writers, truly had the precious Old-Time faith, which our present fast-paced and light world lacks. How I love the song!

What a hymn! Very poetic to the core! The words of this hymn give much assurance that when I listen to it my eyes are filled with tears. I have been through many trials and temptations like any true child of God will have to experience, yet this hymn has been a favourite and I give the Almighty, Omnipotent God, the El-Shadai all the glory for the writer of this song, that is, a British, John Newton. I like the rendition of the Winneba Youth Choir. It is very moving!

To remember that God is always near, gives us such great relief. The words of "Be gone, unbelief, my Saviour is near" is a constant reminder of why CHRIST died for us all especially for my family and I. So when troubles come make a conscious effort to smile at the storm.

The word of God tells us that in this world there shall be tribulations. But we must be of good cheer for He has overcome the world. This hymn sums it all up and I sing on relying on the unfailing assurance my Lord Jesus has given me.

My wife and I have sung this remarkable song for many years, both in times of discouragement or times of joy. It has spoken to us and encouraged us many times to be looking to Him and not to our seemingly impossible circumstances in our missionary work in Papua New Guinea. I am not sure of the author, or where we learned it, probably from our British co-workers. I think it is of British origin.

Hymn singing is a favourite hobby amongst the Christian inhabitants of the city of Fretown in Sierra Leone (one of the oldest cities of western civilization and Christianity) with their long history of slavery and freedom. Begone unbelief is quite popular, it speaks of assurance each stanza of it! What a lovely hymn, one of my grandmother's favourite! With tears of joy I sing it always and it indeed strengthens my faith especially when things go wrong. Let us sing on!
