He Believes In Me - 05/01/17 02:25 PM
Di and I don't usually make a public issue of our faith. So, just a quick comment about this tune.
Many songs have been written about how people of faith believe in God. It's our opinion that He also believes in us. This song attempts to express that sentiment. We wrote this back in 2012 and no longer have a full list of the tracks. But, here is what I (Alan) can remember - I think this is correct, I know the style, key and tempo are correct and I'm pretty sure of the rest:
Style is C_CLOUDS.STY (Clouds - Top 40 Country R&B)
RealTracks in song: 366:Bass, Electric, Country Ev 065
RealTracks in song: 1542:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm PopBelieve Ev16 065
RealTracks in song: 887:Piano, Acoustic, Solo-Accompaniment FolkPopPrairie Ev 100
RealDrums in Song: NashvilleEven8^1-a:Sidestick, HiHat , b:Snare, Ride
There's also a Synth track but I don't recall which one it is. It's in the key of Eb @ 80 bpm.
You'll notice it has an evolving chorus. It's not too common to do that but we thought it appropriate for this song.

(v1)
When burdens cast their shadow, on my weary soul
And the light grows dim, from my cloak of sin
I know just where to go
CHORUS 1
I call once more to Jesus, he will set me free
He gives me strength and courage, He believes in me
(v2)
When I have shame and worries, and Satan takes command
Then I reach out, and refuse my doubt
When I feel my Father’s hand
CHORUS 2
I trust my Lord and Savior, He will always be
The truth that won’t dessert me, He believes in me
(v3)
I suffer greed and vengeance, and lust can rule my day
And I call his name, sometimes in vain
But he loves me anyway
CHORUS 3
I ask Him for forgiveness, and love eternally
In spite of all my failings, He believes in me
REPEAT CHORUS 3
Yes, He believes in me
