I like the thought of "Heaven Of My Heart" - "A secret place so full of love and grace"; and "Once And For All" -"Oh, won't you come with me/To a hill called Calvary.../Can anyone explain the mystery beyond the pain of this place where love is born again." Poignant and beautiful. After years of personnel changes and so-so albums that languished in the shadows of Petra, three GREAT albums have emerged for White Heart, each seemingly topping the last until with last year's 'Tales Of Wonder' many critics were tossing around the phrase 'classic'. Now comes this, another superlative set of classy AOR cuts ranging from blues based rockers like "Point Of No Return", to the haunting title track. Lyrically White Heart are good, structurally they're repetitive. But that's a very personal view. If you've any of their previous albums I reckon you'll like this. For me it didn't have that spark.
