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 over 45 years. Here’s this week’s chart – for the week ending Sunday January 07TH 2024 – the 360TH week of this current era that began on Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017:
| TW | LW | WKS | SONG TITLE | ARTIST / SITE |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 2 | 21 | Hallelujah Feeling [1ST week @ # 1] |
Caleb & John |
| 2 | 1 | 12 | I Thank God | Housefires Ft. JWLKRS Worship |
| 3 | 3 | 9 | I Believe | Phil Wickham |
| 4 | 5 | 5 | Strong | Anne Wilson |
| 5 | 4 | 22 | Praise The Lord | Micah Tyler |
| 6 | 6 | 19 | Parking Lot | Cochren & Co. |
| 7 | 7 | 6 | Grave Robber | Crowder |
| 8 | 8 | 2 | Hallelujah Anyway | Rend Collective |
| 9 | 10 | 5 | Lead On Good Shepherd | Patrick Mayberry |
| 10 | – | 1 | Crazy About You | Tauren Wells |
# 1 This Week In:
2022 – “Who I Am” – Ben Fuller
2021 – “Weary Traveler” – Jordan St. Cyr
2020 – “Every Step Of The Way” – Cade Thompson
2019 – “Holy Water” – We The Kingdom
2018 – “Well Done” – The Afters
2017 – “Lions” – Skillet
CALEB & JOHN – After an unprecedented 9 weeks in a row at # 2 – and 12 weeks at # 2 overall – “Hallelujah Feeling” finally ascends to the pinnacle of my chart in its 21ST week. There’s actually a pretty good chance that it could eventually become my # 1 smash overall of this current 7-year era of my chart – surpassing Casting Crowns’ “Nobody (But Jesus)”. I was wondering if that would ever occur. Looks like it may.
TAUREN WELLS – Pastor Tauren is on my chart with his 10TH hit over the past 6 years – “Crazy About You”. It’s his follow-up to 2022’s “Fake It”. Now “Crazy About You” carries a little bit of controversy with it, as some Christian radio programmers have actually banned it from their respective stations. It is their belief that the song includes some lyrics that are not theologically accurate. You can Google the song and read about both sides of the questionable lyrics. I personally like the song. I like the way it sounds. I prefer this style of song from Tauren Wells over the style of “Fake It”.
SPOTIFY – You can hear “My Top 10 Hits” anytime simply by heading over to my CountUp playlist on Spotify. All 10 hits are there from top to bottom. You can hear them in order from # 1 to # 10, or you can shuffle them. My playlist will be updated every weekend (usually before the actual chart is presented here on Mondays). You can link to it here.
This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again with the new weekend – and 3 new entries – known as #TravelThursday, #SundayScripture, and #MusicMonday.
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. God used loud music on the radio to reach me in August of 2006. I’ve been testifying about Him ever since.
Be blessed my friends ! May our 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.
