Biography
Sharon Rutherford wrote more than 50 songs/poems. Many are little treasures of beauty. While some of her songs give us a glimpse of the struggles and pain in her life, what her songs really speak of is Sharon’s very personal relation with God. Not very many people ever come to such a deep understanding of God’s infinite grace and acceptance. Only a few of those also have the gifts of poetry and music to express that miracle in such a way that through them it can touch other people’s hearts. Sharon's true legacy is not in things material but in her treasury of songs. These are the Songs of Sharon.
