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 May 03RD 2026 – the 481ST week of this current era that began on Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017:

4 ON & OFF – This week’s chart is quite the surprise with 4 new entries on it. That means 4 songs fall off of my chart this week – including the long-running “Heaven On My Mind” (TobyMac X Forrest Frank) after 17 weeks, and the 11TH and biggest hit ever on my chart from Chris Tomlin – “How Good It Is”. It falls off after 28 weeks – including 4 weeks at # 1, 6 weeks at # 2, and 4 weeks at # 3. It is now my # 8 hit of this current era that began over 9 years ago. That’s # 8 out of 438 hits !
ONE-HIT WONDER – A couple of months ago – Jeremy Rosado – spent 4 weeks on my chart with “Keep Holding On”. He’s a local guy from here in the Tampa Bay area. As a 20-year-old he was a contestant on the 2012 season of “American Idol”. 9 years later he was a contestant on the 2021 season of “The Voice”.
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.
