關於簡譜

簡譜（Numbered Notation）以 1 到 7 的數字來表示旋律中的每個音，而不是用五線譜上的音符。數字代表這個音在該曲調音階中的級數，而非絕對音高，所以無論用什麼調演唱，同一首曲子的簡譜寫法都一樣。

同一個八度內，數字 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 對應大家熟悉的唱名 Do Re Mi Fa Sol La Ti。數字上方加一點，表示高八度；下方加一點，表示低八度──不加點則是原本書寫的中央八度。

單獨一個數字代表一拍。數字後面緊接一條短橫線（-），表示這個音延長一拍。數字下方加一條底線則相反，表示縮短時值──一條底線是半拍，兩條底線是四分之一拍。「0」代表休止符，也就是停頓一拍。

譜面最上方的標示，例如「1=C」或「1=Ab」，說明級數 1（「Do」）對應的實際音高。小調樂曲則標示「6=X」──級數 6（「La」）才是真正的主音。音符上方的和絃名稱（如「C」或「G7」）一律使用熟悉的字母名稱，不會改成數字。

例如在「1=C」的標示下，數字 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 唱出來是 C D E F G A B；在「1=G」的標示下，同樣的數字 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 卻唱出 G A B C D E F#──形狀相同，調性不同。

Our blest Redeemer ere He breathed

Fullness of the Spirit As the Comforter

English247
1
Our blest Redeemer ere He breathed
His tender last farewell,
A guide, a comforter, bequeathed
With us to dwell.
2
He came sweet influence to impart,
A gracious, willing guest,
While He can find one humble heart
Wherein to rest.
3
And His that gentle voice we hear,
Soft as the breath of even,
That checks each fault, that calms each fear
With peace of heav’n.
4
And every virtue we possess,
And every victory won,
And every thought of holiness,
Are His alone.
5
Lord, in Thy purity and grace,
Our weakness pitying see;
Oh, make our heart Thy dwelling place,
And worthier Thee.

Miss Harriet Auber was the daughter of James Auber of London, and was born in that city, October 4, 1773. After leaving London, she led a secluded life at Bronxbourne and Hoddesdon, in Hertfordshire, writing devotional poetry, sacred songs and paraphrases.

In 1829 her “Spirit of the Psalms” was published; a collection of lyrics founded on the Biblical Psalms. “Haisten Lord, ” is from Psalm 72 known for centuries to Christians as one of Messianic Psalms. Ms. Auber died in Holliston, January 20, 1862. She lived to witness and be in favor of the beginnings of the missionary ventures the 19th century, and, although she could not participate with those who left to distant shores in the name of Christ, she was happy in having written a campaign hymn which they loved to sing. John Julian’s Dictionary of Hymns and Hymn Writers credits “With joy we hail the sacred day“ to both Miss Auber and Henry Francis Lyte. Both have hymns that start with the same line. One died before the other’s works were published. Possibly the collector may have seen a forgotten hymn of Lyte’s with that first line.

The tune that best interprets this hymn in spirit and in living music is Lowell Masons “Eltham. “ Its harmony is like chiming bells. Miss Auber is also credited with writing “Hasten Lord, the glorious time."

Auber was a quiet Englishwoman known mainly for this one hymn on the Spirit. ... This hymn was composed in the privacy of her bedroom, where she had no paper or pen so she used her diamond ring and wrote it on a window pane.

She wrote other poetry included in the book "Spirit of Psalms" in 1829. Some other hymns she wrote are:

Bright was the guiding star that led
Hasten, Lord the glorious time
Sweet is the work, O Lord
With joy we hail the sacred day
-Songs of the Spirit by Martin
