June 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:

# 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 is at # 1 for a 3RD week with his smash “Help Is On The Way (Maybe Midnight)”. It’s got the 3RD “most increased plays” this week at U.S. Christian radio (large market), and it will very likely hit # 1 nationally in a couple of weeks.

Last week’s BUBBLING UNDER is this week’s highest new entry – straight-in to my Top 5 at # 5. I love the new Ryan Stevenson track “When We Fall Apart”. It’s actually a re-recorded version of the song that was originally released as a single late in 2019 and included on his 2020 album “Wildest Dreams”. The new version features country music singer Vince Gill and his wife of 21 years – pop star Amy Grant. It sounds great on the radio; although, the lyrics do make my eyes water a bit. It’s OK to cry. It’s OK to fall apart.

Here’s the official lyric video for “When We Fall Apart”:

June has arrived, and Summer is here in the U.S.A. It’s going to be a fun Summer, and I’ll be here all season long continuing my 4 blog posts per weekend schedule. This is actually my 5TH blog post for this holiday weekend, so I’ve got a quick turnaround of just 48 hours before my next weekend of blogging begins.

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 4 new entries on Thursday, Friday, Sunday, and Monday. 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.

Be blessed my friends ! May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
