Heidi McKee knows her way around inspirational lyrics, that’s for sure. In the CD “Difference,” she shows a display of talent ranging from slower-paced songs such as “One Truth” to “Wings of a Melody” to the rousing “Wrong Too Long (Gonna Get Right Tonight.”) McKee plays guitar and is aided on instrumentals by Tony Ford.
 
With a voice that is throaty, she catches your ear immediately with the first track, “Rest in You.”  "...you’re the one I run toyou will carry me.” Her phrasing is well done as in “Difference,” the title song. Here, there is an instrumental opening, up beat and all through, you can imagine flashing neon lights.  “I walk in His love and I’m never wrong,” tells us that we can find solace with Him, also. 
 
On a slower pace, “One Truth” is ballad-like and says that “ass this world starts to fade away and crumble, you’re the one, the one truth.”  “Wrong Too Long (Gonna Get Right Tonight)” reminded me of a revival in which the person singing wants Jesus to “write me in your book of life”” and they will finally get it right. The lyrics shine here.
 
What I didn’t think fit this CD was having children sing at the end with two songs. You cannot understand all of the lyrics, which is a let-down compared to the previous 10 tracks.
