1. Red Meets Blue - Matt Wertz
  2. "'Sunlight dances with the distance, in her squinty-eyed shoes. And I'm chasing down horizons, in hopes of being danced with, too.' It's about the beauty of God and being captivated by Him."

  3. Black Dress - The Normals
  4. "This song is about the darkness of sin, particularly lust. 'Do I look her in the eye or do I even dare to care.' How many times have I decided not to care how my sin affects others? Super insightful song."

  5. Sun-Star-Moon - Paul Colman Trio
  6. "I remember going to their concert and hearing the lead singer explain the idea that we are here to reflect God's light; much like the moon reflects the sun. Simple, but profound."

  7. Fields of Gold - Sting
  8. "This song is like a sunset. It exists in the space between day and night, light and dark, happy and sad. I always wish the song was longer because I'm never quite done feeling the way this song makes me feel... and then it's over."

  9. In the Sun (Gulf Coast Relief) [Featuring Chris Martin] - Michael Stipe
  10. "The original version of this song, by Joseph Arthur, was in the movie 'Saved!' I really like the movie, and I couldn't get the song out of my head. Throw in Michael Stipe and Chris Martin and it's a must have."

  11. The Shadow Proves The Sunshine - Switchfoot
  12. "I like this concept. The dark things prove the light things. It's challenging, but I think the idea is that darkness, pain, and bad all point us toward light, pleasure, and good."

  13. Be Near - Shane & Shane
  14. "'Dark is light to you.' Psalm 139. Plus, these guys sort of know what they're doing."

  15. Sometime By Step - Rich Mullins
  16. "This song is Lake Beauty Bible Camp. It will always remind me of Jeremy Sohlstrom and Josh Kvernen. Rich Mullins was amazing."

  17. Awake - Josh Groban
  18. "Um, yeah, Josh Groban is absolutely fantastic. Just listen and then go buy all his music."

  19. Been Here Before - Jeremy Enigk
  20. "I first heard Enigk in the Mainstay van while helping my friends move. It was night time. This song was amazing. Justin and I talked about how some music seems to capture the 'gravity of night.'"

  21. The Throne - Michael W. Smith
  22. "I used to listen to this song and think of what heaven will be like. The tone, instruments, lyrics... it all evokes this image of clouds and light in my mind."
