The Story Behind “Hold You Tight” by Dan Bremnes
The story behind “Hold Me Tight” by Dan Bremnes
Story behind the song “Hold You Tight”:
“I wrote this song for a few friends, who were dealing with deep depression and anxiety. I wanted to speak to the lie that says, ‘It’s over. Give up.’ It’s usually at the point of wanting to give up that we’re on the edge of breakthrough. This is for anyone who’s ‘in the middle of it.’ You are loved, you are amazing, you are held.”
“There’s so much going on in the world today, it can be easy to feel hopeless or alone. But no matter what you’re going through, God is with you every step of the way, holding you tight.”
-Dan Bremnes

Lyrics to “Hold You Tight”:
You walk, you run, you climb
And you fall again
You crawl, you fight, you break apart tonight
But I am the voice that keeps on calling out to you
Lighting up the dark
I turn chaos into art
So if you're falling under
Or if you're letting go
Don't you worry tonight
I will hold you
Don't you worry my child
I will stay by your side
In the middle of it
In the middle of it
I will hold you
Hold you
Hold you tight
You hope, you dream, you chase, you bleed
A story in these scars are never gone
And you're lost and found, I'm here and now
And underneath these stars
I see just who you are
Don't you worry tonight
I will hold you
Don't you worry my child
I will stay by your side
In the middle of it
In the middle of it
I will hold you
Hold you
Hold you tight
You don't have to worry
You don't have to hide
I know you're weary, weary from the fight
You don't have to fear now
I'm here by you're side
And I'm gonna wait here
Wait with you tonight
Don't you worry tonight
I will hold you
Don't you worry my child
I will stay by your side
In the middle of it
In the middle of it
I will hold you
Hold you
Hold you tight (don't have to worry)
Don't you worry tonight
I will hold you (don't have to fight)
Don't you worry my child
I will stay by your side
In the middle of it
In the middle of it
I will hold you
Hold you
Hold you tight
Hold you tight
(Hold you, hold you)
Hold you tight
