inside of that song that we didn’t even fully
understand. It took at least a year and a half for
that song to even have the impact that it did.
But even from the first time that we played it, we
didn’t know, and it was our first time ever cowriting
with people and doing anything outside
together, so we didn’t know the response it was
going to get, we were unsure. Being a musician
and songwriter in general, even if you’re doing
it for God, there is still a lot of insecurity that
comes with it, just a lot of pressure and hope
that comes with it, and we weren’t sure what
would happen. And just one day, I think we can
both remember it clearly, just getting off stage
and seeing there is obviously something in there
that’s what people need. What I’ve realized in
my life in the past year, and its been five years
maybe since we released that song, there are
seasons of my life where I’m drawn back to it
because of how simple, and honest, and to the
point it is. I think even without knowing it all of
our goals in writing songs even up until now
Tremble
has been to go back to that moment, and how
do we say it in the most simple way possible?
How do we call on Jesus and move a group
of people to declare that and to say His name,
and I think that’s the first time we ever knew or
really saw with our own eyes that God could
really do something with our songs that’s so
massive, and it given us more drive to create
more of those moments.
[WM] Mosaic MSC has a new 8-song
project just released called Human. What is
your favorite memory from this project; preproduction,
the recording, or post-production?
[Mariah] There are so many great memories,
I think the whole thing to me is a great memory.
To listen to a song I have little montages of all
of these moments where we were able to be
together. This season of life has been so difficult
for me in not being together, so even more so
now, you hold on to those moments. I think
a lot of it was the writing process of it, and I
think I can honestly say I don’t know if I’ve ever
encountered Jesus so clearly in my life than in
those three days that we recorded that record.
Part of that was being in a room with my best
friends and watching them have encounters
with God, and watching them have prophetic
and beautiful words to write these songs.
Having my best friends have these moments
with these great songs, and just seeing their
lives become beautiful was just the best thing in
the world. So writing this album became one of
my best memories of why. The pre-production
