June 16, 2025 – 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 almost 50 years. Here’s this week’s chart – for the week ending Sunday June 15TH 2025 – the 435TH week of this current era that began on Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017:

TW	LW	WKS	SONG TITLE	ARTIST / SITE
1	1	13	You Never Gave Up On Me [3RD week @ # 1]	The Afters
2	2	12	Oh Death	MercyMe
3	4	6	The King Is In The Room	Phil Wickham
4	3	12	Unashamed	Matthew West
5	6	4	God Did It	Micah Tyler
6	5	20	Money Can’t Buy	Cochren & Co.
7	7	11	Jesus Loves	Zach Williams
8	8	9	No Fear	Jon Reddick
9	9	3	I Know A Name	Elevation Worship Ft. Brandon Lake
10	–	1	Breakdown	Andrew Ripp

# 1 This Week In:
2024 – “Beautiful Life” – Pat Barrett
2023 – “Cornerstone” – TobyMac Ft. Zach Williams
2022 – “Sunday Sermons” – Anne Wilson
2021 – “Help Is On The Way (Maybe Midnight)” – TobyMac
2020 – “I Will Fear No More” – The Afters
2019 – “Church (Take Me Back)” – Cochren & Co.
2018 – “Do It Again” – Elevation Worship
2017 – “Home” – Chris Tomlin

CHARTBEAT – The Afters’ “You Never Gave Up On Me” spends its 3RD week at # 1 – becoming the 4TH song in a row to do so – starting with the oldest song on my chart – Cochren & Co.’s “Money Can’t Buy” – which debuted on my chart back in early-February. It’s actually Cochren & Co.’s 4TH hit to spend at least 20 weeks on my chart. And finally – Andrew Ripp is back with his 6TH hit in “Breakdown”. It’s his follow-up to his long-running (26-week) hit “Love’s Got A Way”. Get ready for a new # 1 next week. Maybe.

SPOTIFY – You can hear “My Top 10 Hits” anytime by accessing 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.

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 in South Florida 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.
