Now Feeling Safe And Sound by Chris Werle and John Ford
Copyright © 2009 Chris Werle and John Ford
There's a chill in the air tonight; come, let Him hold you tight.
He'll keep you warm, He'll surely quell the storm that's raging in your heart.
There's a song that he sings for you; the melody rings true.
So soft and warm, so sure to quell the storm that's raging in your heart.
I surely know that he cares for you and me.
You can feel His love; when I fall, He comforts me.
He's there if you believe.
There's a peace, that just feels so right.
In His tender care, so safe and warm, now sheltered from the storm
That rages all around; now feeling safe and sound.

Since I’ve been teleworking since March 2020 (as a result of the Coronavirus pandemic), that has afforded me time at home to work on all the original songs my buddy Chris Werle and I (John Ford) have written. Chris wrote the lyrics, chords, and melody. I then transcribe it into notation, since Chris doesn’t read music. I then write the harmonies, most of the instrumental solos and/or counter melodies, arrange all the instruments, and put everything together.
All songs started in Band-in-a-Box (and some of them are over 20 years old). Then they were worked up in either PowerTracks Pro or RealBand. Since Chris and I live in different states now, I had to rely on previously recorded vocals and his guitar playing from old PowerTracks or RealBand .SEQ files. Because of limitations in RealBand with some VSTi’s, I did have to export the some of the MIDI tracks out of RealBand and render them to audio in Cakewalk (for those that RealBand didn’t render properly), after which I would bring the audio back into RealBand. But most of the songs and the final mix were exclusively rendered from RealBand.
My goal here is to post one song each day until all 26 of the songs have been posted. Some have been posted previously, but I have gone back and reworked all of them, so they are all new mixes and are different from what was originally posted.
Most of the songs are Christian in nature, so if that’s not your thing, that’s fine. But it’s our thing. So without further ado, here is the music.
