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.

Fight the good fight with all thy might

Spiritual Warfare Fighting On

1
Fight the good fight with all thy might!
Christ is thy strength, and Christ thy right;
Lay hold on life, and it shall be
Thy joy and crown eternally.
2
Run the straight race through God’s good grace,
Lift up thine eyes, and seek His face;
Life with its way before us lies,
Christ is the path, and Christ the prize.
3
Cast care aside, lean on thy Guide;
His boundless mercy will provide;
Trust, and thy trusting soul shall prove
Christ is its life, and Christ its love.
4
Faint not nor fear, His arms are near,
He changeth not, and thou art dear;
Only believe, and thou shalt see
That Christ is all in all to thee.

My father likes this hymn. I only hope that I am able to ensure this is played hopefully a long time far far away.

I was in our prayer meeting yesterday evening and the 2nd verse came to me, then the 3rd - I had to google it to remember the 1st verse.. Here I am trying to work out what God is saying and the last comment, made yesterday is very similar. We occasionally sing 'hymns' but I can't remember the last time I heard 'Fight the good fight'. I think the focus was on 'lift up thine eyes and seek His face'.

This morning some lines from this hymn came to me from the last two verses. I looked them up and found they from this hymn Fight the good fight. I went to church and found the last hymn that we sang was Fight the good fight, (not a hymn we usually sing) so I'm sure God must be saying something to me.

John Monsell was a gifted Anglican clergyman who could hold his congregation spellbound as he spoke and who advocated "more fervent and joyous" singing in his church. He once said, "We sing, but not as we should, to Him who is the chief among 10,000, the altogether lovely."

This hymn was written to accompany the reading of Ephesians 4:17-32, where Paul outlines the nature of new life in Christ. - Great Songs of Faith by Brown and Norton

This hymn says so much to you and I. We must fight the good fight, as we lay hold on eternal life. And, run the straight race through God's abundant grace, as we lift up our eyes to seek and behold His face. Care must be cast aside whatever betide as we lean on our Guide. Put all our trust in Him, and fear not, but believe. Our Christ is our way and our wonderful, complete Salvation. Hallelujah!

This hymn is important, because it speaks of a believer's life, which is a life of trust in the Lord, and a life in the power of His might. It is a life in faith against all the power of the enemy. It is a life of victory over all the power of the enemy. And, it is a life in union with Christ, and it is not a life apart from Christ. Christ is our strength, our might, our right, our eternal joy and crown, our path, our prize, our life, our love, our Guide, and He is all in all to us.
