A Fun Note from Sharon….

Hear those Jingle Bells ring as we take a cozy Sleigh Ride through a Winter Wonderland. Maybe we’ll run into The Man with the Bag as he brings Joy to the World with his presents and jolly laughter. Though there’s no greater gift than the one God gave when He sent His Son, Jesus, Down to Earth to bring peace to the souls of all people. No greater love has the world ever known than the true Christmas Story which began one Holy Night with the Birthday of a King. For a moment, creation stood still and bowed to this little Infant Holy who was born in a lowly stable. Among the laughter and cheer of this glorious season, may we all take a moment to celebrate the beauty of this Silent Night. As you roast warm Chestnuts on an open fire, may you Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas listening to the heartfelt sounds of my music, and may the God of all creation who loves you Capture your Heart just as He has captured mine.

A Fun Note from Sharon…

It’s As Clear As A Picture that Faith Is Not What You See. Faith is a belief in God’s promise that His blood purifies us. So I Will Sing Praises as My Tribute to God as He has helped me continue to be Faithful to Him as I Ac-cent-tchu-ate the Positive and Move On past difficulties with His strength. It makes me just want to Tell Somebody how they can have a better journey in this life Coastin’ with God as their strength.

I Cry Aloud For You

This original song, "I Cry Aloud for You," by Sharon Hinton Smith is an incredible song which shows the deep passion that God has for His people. The song is sung as if God is speaking directly to the listener. Sharon's rich smooth vocals cry out the passion of the lyrics from the very heart of God.

It's one of the most moving videos coupled with song focusing totally on Jesus' sacrifice on the Cross for all humanity. The video is from "The Gospel of John" movie. We highly recommend you purchase and watch this beautiful movie! This music video story is great any time of the year, but especially at Easter!

Dancing On Daddy's Shoes

"Dancing on Daddy's Shoes" is a touching original song which beautifully honors the daddy - daughter relationship. The imagery of little feet being swayed atop daddy's evokes memories even beyond that sweet moment in time. It is a true celebration of father's and all that they represent in the lives of their children. The beautiful orchestration, touching lyrics, and melodic sway creates the perfect father daughter dance. Sharon's smooth vocals and the intricate harmonies awaken an inner warmth to perfectly celebrate that special father daughter bond. Sharon originally wrote this for her own special dad.
