Every Monday I post my all-new Top 10 Christian hit music chart based on personal preference and influenced by radio airplay. Here it is – for the week ending Sunday March 08TH 2020:

“Almost Home” – MercyMe [# 1 last week / 12TH week on chart]
“Your Name Is Power” – Rend Collective [4 / 9TH]
“The God Who Stays” – Matthew West [2 / 16TH]
“Rescue Story” – Zach Williams [3 / 22ND]
“Waymaker” – Michael W. Smith Ft. Vanessa Campagna [5 / 7TH]
“See A Victory” – Elevation Worship [6 / 5TH]
“I Will Fear No More” – The Afters [7 / 7TH]
“One Day” – Cochren & Co. [8 / 7TH]
“Amen” – Micah Tyler [9 / 3RD]
“I Know” – Big Daddy Weave [10 / 4TH]

# 1 One Year Ago This Week:
“Red Letters” – Crowder

# 1 Two Years Ago This Week:
“No One Like Our God” – Lincoln Brewster

# 1 Three Years Ago This Week:
“I Have This Hope” – Tenth Avenue North

This blog was on hiatus last week, so this chart wasn’t published. You didn’t miss much. There were no new entries last week and 5 non-movers (the entire Top 5) with minimal movement within the bottom 5.

This week is similar with no new entries again and 7 non-movers. Rend Collective’s 3RD hit on my chart – “Your Name Is Power” – ties their 1ST hit – “Rescuer (Good News)” – at a peak position of # 2. It could very well be my next # 1 smash.

MercyMe continue at # 1 with “Almost Home”, and I got to sing it out loud with 7,000+ brothers and sisters this past Friday night at the Hertz Arena in Estero Florida. The last time I got to sing along with thousands to my current # 1 smash at the time was when “Maybe It’s OK’ was # 1 almost 13 months ago, and We Are Messengers performed it LIVE during their set.

This was my 2ND MercyMe concert in 10 months, and it was also my 2ND Jeremy Camp concert in less than 7 weeks. (Jeremy opened for Franklin Graham at this same arena.) Both artists put on an awesome and inspiring show, and it was great and glorious to be part of that church body experience for 3½ hours. David Leonard opened the show at 7 PM, and Mark Stuart – the longtime (former) lead singer of Audio Adrenaline – hosted the show in-between each of the acts.

Next up on the concert scene – Casting Crowns and Matthew West in about 4½ weeks. Casting Crowns have a new song out – “Love Moved First” – and it’s sitting just outside of my Top 10.

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again next weekend – with 4 new entries on Thursday, Friday, Sunday, and Monday. I don’t blog on Saturdays. That’s my day of rest.
