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.

Reading and believing every Word of God is a sapphire, a spoken sapphire, a treasure and yet much more precious, this hymn came to mind and brought tears to my eyes and joy to my heart. He is the Word and He holds His Word above his Name, John 1:1

The word sapphire ultimately comes from the ancient Hebrew word sappir and the Hebrew root saphar which means to speak.

I cried many times today, but I trust God. I fix my heart on hope when despair tries to enter. "Weeping may tarry for the night but joy comes in the morning," from Psalms. Remember, He knows where we are in His divine plan. Let me walk now in faith!

I was taught this song by a friend in college. He used to hold weekly bible studies at his parents home. He played acoustic guitar expertly and sang songs. Lord you are more Precious- was one of the many we used to all sing together, and I found a new life with the Lord Jesus . A great song I am always reminded of now .

Recently this song made me realize that, my valuation of Christ is still too low. Too many other things replace my love for the Lord. But I was freshly reminded that our dear Lord Jesus loved us so much - to the point that He gave Himself up for us. It is because of this great love, that instead of death, we are met with life everlasting. Nothing compares to this love!! Lord, nothing we desire compares to You.

I've just recently come across this song, and it really rekindled my love for the Lord as I was slowly drifting back into the world. I'm sure this will be a song to come back to whenever trying times come. Thank You Lord for continuing to sustain us by drawing us with Your love and attracting us with Your preciousness!
