My Top 10 Hits – Week 253

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:

WEARY TRAVELER – Jordan St. Cyr’s 2ND hit is a # 1 smash just like his 1ST hit. “Weary Traveler” was an unlikely pop hit on my chart at the onset. It was released to U.S. Christian Radio back during the 2ND week of September, and K-LOVE picked-up on it a couple of weeks later. I didn’t like it / appreciate it at first, but it eventually grew on me. It quietly entered my chart at # 10, as my 18-day road-trip between South Florida and North Texas was getting underway last month. It became the anthem of my road-trip. Its powerful lyrics were appropriate for my journey, but they are also very relevant for the troubled world that we live in today.

Check out Jordan in his own words with the story behind the song:

Come to Me – all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you. Let Me teach you – because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.” (Matthew 11:28-30 NLT)

2021 – Next Monday I’ll present my final weekly chart of 2021. On Wednesday December 29TH 2021 I’ll present “My Top 20 Hits – 2021”. Who’s got my # 1 smash of the entire year ? We shall soon find out.
