May 24, 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 MAY 23RD 2021	WEEK 223

TW	LW	WKS	SONG TITLE	ARTIST / SITE
1	1	11	Help Is On The Way (Maybe Midnight) [2ND week @ # 1]	TobyMac

8	8	26	Every Step Of The Way	Cade Thompson
9	9	7	Gospel Song	Rhett Walker
10	10	5	Mean Girls	Leanna Crawford

# 1 This Week In:
2020 – “I Will Fear No More” – The Afters
2019 – “Born Again” – Austin French
2018 – “The Way (New Horizon)” – Pat Barrett
2017 – “Live Like You’re Loved” – Hawk Nelson

TobyMac spends a 2ND week at # 1 with his smash “Help Is On The Way (Maybe Midnight)”. It’s also Top 5 nationwide at U.S. Christian radio (large market) – and just outside of the Top 5 (small market). I expect it to be Top 3 next week at both.

BUBBLING UNDER – Ryan Stevenson‘s latest “When We Fall Apart” is starting to receive moderate airplay on K-LOVE. It’s sitting just outside of my Top 10, and it could enter with next week’s chart. It would be his 6TH hit on my chart during this current era.

This weekend’s chart is normally the first chart of summer, but this year Memorial Day is as late as it can possibly be on the calendar – May 31ST. Last year it was as early as it can possibly be – May 25TH. (It’s always the last Monday of May.) Here in the U.S. it’s unofficially the start of summer.

Every summer here at #CountUp I celebrate the hottest hits of the hottest time of the year – from Memorial Day Weekend to Labor Day Weekend. On the Tuesday after Labor Day in September I’ll present my Top 10 hits of the 15 weeks of summer.

This blog is # 48 worldwide on the Top 90 Christian Music Blogs, Websites, & Influencers in 2021 chart. Thank You for including us Feedspot !

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again this upcoming weekend – with 5 new entries on Thursday, Friday, Sunday, Monday, and a special post on Tuesday June 01ST (my next music chart). I don’t blog on Saturdays. That’s my day of rest.

Your likes, follows, and comments are always appreciated. Thank You for being part of my online ministry to share God’s Good News and win souls for Christ through His music. I’m also on Twitter and Flickr.
