Christine D'Clario - Me Aferro Lyrics
Lyrics
VERSO 1
Hay tormentas
que parecen nunca acabarse
Todo lo que está
es una batalla constante
Y el ser es atado
en fuego cruzado
PRE CORO 1
He escuchado Tus historias
Dios que sana, Dios de gloria
Hoy te ruego, por Tu gracia
Sé mi rescate
CORO
Si yo me aferro
fuertemente a Ti
Se que te aferras
fuertemente a mí
VERSO 2
Caminos hay
sin una señal que te guíe
Tanta soledad
Nada familiar donde mires
El cruce me atrapa
No encuentro mi lugar
PRE CORO 2
He escuchado Tus historias
Dios resucitado en gloria
Tu vida y misericordia
son mi rescate
(CORO)
PUENTE
En la tempestad
En mi quebrantar
Voy a confiar
sólo en Ti
(CORO)
PRE CORO 3
Me has escrito en Tu historia
Sé que me sanas por Tu gloria
veo Tu misericordia
Tú mi rescate
(CORO)
(PUENTE)
Me aferro
fuertemente a Ti

Meaning & Inspiration
"Me Aferro" by Christine D'Clario, released with its official video on January 28, 2022, presents a poignant journey through life's inevitable struggles and the unwavering anchor found in faith. The song opens by describing experiences of prolonged difficulties, comparing them to unceasing storms and constant battles that leave one feeling trapped in a "crossfire". This vividly portrays the emotional and spiritual distress faced when life becomes overwhelming and chaotic, binding the very being.
In the midst of these trials, the song shifts towards hope, recounting hearing stories of God's power and glory, specifically His ability to heal. A heartfelt plea is made for God's grace to act as a rescue, acknowledging His historical actions as a source of present help. This sets up the core declaration found in the chorus: "Si yo me aferro fuertemente a Ti, Sé que te aferras fuertemente a mí." This expresses a deep trust in a reciprocal relationship with the divine – the act of holding tightly to God is met with the assurance that God holds just as tightly to the individual. It is a statement of mutual commitment and security rooted in faith.
The narrative continues by exploring feelings of being lost and disoriented, like walking paths without direction or finding oneself in a desolate landscape devoid of familiarity. This highlights the isolation and confusion that can accompany challenging circumstances, leading to a feeling of being stuck at a "crossing" and unable to find one's place. The pre-chorus then returns to God's character, referencing His history not just as a healer but specifically as the God resurrected in glory. Here, God's life and mercy are identified as the ultimate source of rescue, pointing towards the redemptive power found in His sacrifice and resurrection.
The bridge serves as a powerful affirmation, declaring unwavering trust in God specifically "in the storm" and "in my brokenness." It emphasizes a commitment to rely solely on Him during the most difficult and vulnerable moments. The song cycles back through the chorus, reinforcing the central theme of mutual adherence. Finally, a variation of the pre-chorus appears, shifting the perspective to a present reality: the singer recognizes being written into God's story, experiences God's healing power through His glory, and witnesses His mercy actively at work, confirming God's role as their rescuer.
"Me Aferro" resonates deeply because it honestly confronts the reality of suffering while firmly pointing to faith in God as the source of strength and rescue. It beautifully articulates the human need to hold onto something stable when everything else is uncertain and assures the listener of God's constant presence and grip. The song's message aligns with numerous biblical passages that speak of God as a refuge and strength in times of trouble (Psalm 46:1), His faithfulness to those who call on Him (Psalm 145:18), and the command to trust in Him with all your heart (Proverbs 3:5-6). The concept of God holding His children is echoed in verses about His strong right hand upholding them (Psalm 37:24) and nothing being able to snatch them out of His hand (John 10:28-29). It offers an inspirational reminder that even in life's fiercest storms and deepest moments of brokenness, a confident grip on faith is met by the unwavering, powerful grip of God, providing hope, stability, and the promise of rescue.
