Due to my special blog post yesterday commemorating Flag Day here in the U.S.A. my Top 10 hits is presented to you today on this Tuesday.

Matthew West mentioned this on the recent K-LOVE Fan Awards: Country music stars are suddenly in abundance on Christian radio. With Dolly Parton and Lady A last summer, and Vince Gill, Thomas Rhett, and Gary LeVox of Rascal Flatts this week – Country music stars are praising and worshiping God alongside established Christian music artists. It all makes sense. Traditional Country music has been rooted in the Gospel since the very beginning. Today’s Christian music sounds very Country. (Think Cain’s “Rise Up (Lazarus)” and “Yes He Can” and Rhett Walker’s “Gospel Song”. Even Crowder’s “Good God Almighty”.)

I really love the sound and feel of Ryan Stevenson’s collaboration with Vince Gill and his wife Amy Grant. Vince sounds amazing in the song, and the short duet portion between Amy and Ryan is wonderful (and not long enough). Every time I hear that song on the radio I turn-up the volume and listen intently to it.

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