A foreign king's heart is quietly stirred and a door swings open; joy and weeping rise together over a new foundation; Nehemiah rides the broken walls alone by moonlight, seeing what they will become; every family builds the stretch before their own house; and the word for the week holds the whole thing up: the joy of the Lord is your strength. We end by the embers, the watchman keeping watch, the city singing far ahead.Scripture woven throughout: Ezra 1:2–3, 3:11–13; Nehemiah 1:4, 2:4, 2:12–18, 3:23, 4:9, 6:3, 8:9–12, and 12:43.For best rest: play at low volume.

No battle dwelt on. Just a king who gathered his whole nation, little ones on their parents' shoulders, and prayed, "We have no might... but our eyes are upon thee." The answer came through a singer: the battle is not yours. Stand still, and see. We end in the quiet courtyard at midnight, the realm at rest round about.Scripture woven throughout: 2 Chronicles 15:15, 20:12–13, 20:15–17, 20:21–22, and 20:30.For best rest: play at low volume.
