Chapter 3: Of Anchor and Fire

I wrote this song more than a decade ago. I was still in college—young, unsure, searching.

I don’t even remember what sparked it exactly,

but I remember what it felt like:

like I was quietly asking for something bigger to hold me.

For some reason, I kept it tucked away.

Maybe I wasn’t ready to share that part of me yet.

Maybe I was waiting for the right time,

or maybe I didn’t even know what it meant back then.

Now, as Above Velvet Air enters its third chapter,

I feel like this song finally found its place.

It’s not polished. It’s not loud.

But it’s honest. And it still carries the same fire I felt when I first wrote it.

Of Anchor and Fire is a reminder that faith doesn’t always look like clarity—

sometimes it looks like letting go.

Like trusting what you can’t explain.

Like floating instead of fighting.

If you’ve ever carried something quietly for years,

if you’ve ever waited without knowing what for—

this is for you.
