March 1, 2021 – CountUp

Every Monday I post my all-new Top 10 Christian hit music chart based on personal preference and influenced by radio airplay from the previous week. It’s the continuation of a weekly hobby that goes back 40+ years. Here’s this week’s chart:

COUNTUP MINISTRIES	FOR THE WEEK ENDING SUNDAY FEBRUARY 28TH 2021	WEEK 211

TW	LW	WKS	SONG TITLE	ARTIST / SITE
1	3	7	Say I Won’t [1ST week @ # 1]	MercyMe
2	1	14	Every Step Of The Way	Cade Thompson
3	2	16	Out Of My Hands	Jeremy Camp
4	4	6	Less Like Me	Zach Williams
5	6	2	Good God Almighty	Crowder
6	9	6	Fires	Jordan St. Cyr
7	5	21	Truth Be Told	Matthew West
8	7	4	Battle Belongs	Phil Wickham
9	8	5	Next To Me	Jordan Feliz
10	10	10	Another In The Fire	Hillsong United

# 1 This Week In:
2020 – “Almost Home” – MercyMe
2019 – “Red Letters” – Crowder
2018 – “Gracefully Broken” – Matt Redman Ft. Tasha C. Leonard
2017 – “Love Broke Thru” – Toby Mac

After 12 consecutive weeks at # 1 Cade Thompson’s “Every Step Of The Way” eases down one notch this week to # 2. It was # 1 all 4 weeks of December, all 5 weeks of January, and the first 3 weeks of February.

Replacing Cade at the top is the last act to spend 12 consecutive weeks at # 1 – MercyMe. They did it last February to May with “Almost Home”. This is their follow-up single – “Say I Won’t”. It’s their 5TH hit on my chart since 2017. 2017 is also the last time they released an album (“Lifer”) which included their first 3 hits. I’m expecting a new album from them this year that will include both “Almost Home” and “Say I Won’t”.

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