Down the years Heather has released numerous worship projects as well as being a dancer, choreographer, painter and writer. She also has her own professional dance company - a busy lady! This is Heather's first release under the Jesus Culture umbrella and shows a free ranging style similar to Rita Springer with a blend of both live and studio tracks with the aim of drawing the listener to worship. The live opener "Come In" states the intention of "giving myself in total abandonment". The title track is a plea to be purified whilst "Undivided Focus" is a statement of "surrender to the Holy Spirit". My favourite on the album is "Kisses Of His Mouth" from Song Of Songs, which begins with a simple piano backing from Jeffrey Kunde and subtly builds as the song progresses. The pace steps up on "Shadow Of Your Wings" and the live "I'm Still Thirsty" and the album finishes with an outstanding live version of hymn evergreen "How Great Thou Art" given a 21st century makeover and even shows something of a Coldplay feel three and a half minutes into the track!
