Two, three, four. [MUSIC - RENSHAW, "IT'S ALL RIGHT"]
[SINGING] Truth is, I sometimes feel alone.
Truth is, I never want to show. It's rare that I would tell you. It's rare that I would ever let you know. Oh.
Truth is, I've made my share of mistakes, Some years ago and some yesterday. I've tried to let it go now, But it just keeps on getting in my way. Oh.
Because I've been there before. I've seen those places. But for now, I've got my head held high And my feet above the ground, and I'll touch the sky.
And now it's all right.
Truth is, I try to try my best.
It don't make me better than the rest. But I'm still me and I'm still free. And I'll keep holding on to everything. Oh, yeah. Because I've been there before. I've seen those places. But for now, I've got my head held high And my feet above the ground, and I'll touch the sky.
And now it's all right. Yeah, I've been there before. I've felt that pain inside. I've hung my head and shed some tears. Now I can look you in the eye.
For now it's all right.
And I'll keep holding on to all those memories in my head.
I'll keep holding on and remember everything you said, Because I've been there before. I've seen those places. But for now, I've got my head held high And my feet above the ground, and I'll touch the sky.
And now it's all right. Yeah, I've been there before. I've felt that pain inside. I've hung my head and shed some tears. Now I can look you in the eye.
For now it's all right.
Truth is, I sometimes feel alone.
Truth is, I never want to show. It's rare that I would tell you. It's rare that I would ever let you know.
Hi, and welcome back to Mormon Channel Studio. I'm your host, Nicole, and that amazing song you just heard was called "It's All Right" by Renshaw. You guys--welcome to Mormon Channel Studio. How are you doing? Thank you. Great. That was an amazing song. Seriously, that was awesome. Tell us a little bit about that song. What inspired it? I guess that's me. I wrote that song, and I have a really hard time, like, expressing my feelings in any other way than music. And I feel like--I think we all go through times that are hard. We go through trials. But then we go through times that are really great and awesome. Right. And the Lord blesses us. But that's just kind of what the song is about. Great. Awesome. And how long have you all been playing together? Just about four months. Three or four months. Great. And do you guys, like, take turns, like, writing songs? Like, one day you'll write a song and then the next day you'll write a song, or how does that work? It's kind of like, we all show up to band practice, and one of us is just like, "Guys, I have a song." Yeah. And you start playing it, and the other guys start playing along. You start figuring out arrangement and working it out. But it's more on, like, the basis of, if you have a song you want to share with the band, then-- Yeah. "Let's do it," right. Cayson writes a lot of them, though. He's great. Yeah. Oh, that's awesome. How do you guys feel like music is your outlet? Like, when did you guys discover, like, "This is what I want to do"? Oh, wow. It's probably different for each of us. For me, it was in high school that I started playing the guitar and singing, and I found--kind of like I said before--it was just a way for me to kind of get my feelings out, and I felt like it helped me. And there's been a lot of music that I listen to and stuff that has been really uplifting as well. Great. Well, the next song that you're going to be playing is a well-known hymn called "There Is a Green Hill Far Away." And the song, as we know, talks about the Crucifixion of the Savior. And so why did you guys decide that this was the song or hymn that you wanted to play?
Well, we're all members of the Church, and I can't speak for everyone--I think I can--we love the Savior, and we're very grateful for His sacrifice. And honestly, we haven't talked about the meaning of the song much amongst us, but as we've practiced it, I know that I've definitely felt the power and strength from the Savior. And I think that that's what the Savior's for. Great. Well, we're so excited to hear it. So go ahead, guys, take it away.
[MUSIC - RENSHAW, "THERE IS A GREEN HILL FAR AWAY"]
[SINGING] There is a green hill far away, Without a city wall, Where the dear Lord was crucified.
He died to save us all.
We may not know, we cannot tell, What pains he had to bear, But we believe it was for us He hung and suffered there.
Ooh.
There was no other good enough To pay the price of sin.
He only could unlock the gate Of heav'n and let us in.
Oh, dearly, dearly has he loved! And we must love him too, And trust in his redeeming blood, And try his works to do.
Ooh.
