The contemplative yet arresting songs on Misty Edwards’ fourth studio album probe the spiritual mysteries that lie behind everyday life. The Kansas City–based songwriter/worship leader brings both scriptural depth and personal yearning to Little Bird as she touches on God’s transcendent presence (“Invisible One”), the disappointments of the mortal world (“Summer Girl”), and the promise of salvation (“Sound of a Heart”). The Latin-tinged folk sounds of “Audience of One,” the stately balladry of “Killing Me with Mercy,” and the jazzy accents of “Center of the Universe” frame Edwards’ evocative alto vocals with taste and imagination.
