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 nearly 45 years. Here’s this week’s chart – for the week ending Sunday April 23RD 2023 – the 323RD week of this current era that began on Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017:

# 1 This Week In:
2022 – “See Me Through It” – Brandon Heath
2021 – “Fires” – Jordan St. Cyr
2020 – “Almost Home” – MercyMe
2019 – “Greatness Of Our God” – Newsboys
2018 – “Freedom Hymn” – Austin French
2017 – “Even If” – MercyMe

DAN BREMNES – My #PickHitOfTheWeek is the one song that I’d like to hear more on the radio, as once I do – the song should climb into the top tier of my chart. I’d like to hear “Fingerprints” more on K-LOVE and The JOY-FM. It’s got a cool quirky upbeat sound to it, and its lyrics glorify our God. I like its chorus:

When you see love – leave a mark
Healin’ broken hearts
You see chains fall apart
You see hope rise from the dark
It’s so much more than ordinary
It’s nothing less than extraordinary
It’s the fingerprints of God

3 weeks ago – I featured its official lyric video. Since then – Dan has released the official music video. Check it out, and sing along to God:

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again with the new weekend – and 4 new entries – known as #TravelThursday, #RetroFriday, #SundayScripture, and #Top10Monday.

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. I’m also on Twitter and Flickr.

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.

# 1 This Week In:
2022 – “See Me Through It” – Brandon Heath
2021 – “Good God Almighty” – Crowder
2020 – “Almost Home” – MercyMe
2019 – “Confidence” – Sanctus Real
2018 – “Freedom Hymn” – Austin French
2017 – “I Have This Hope” – Tenth Avenue North

CASTING CROWNS – My favorite band from McDonough Georgia are back on my chart after a nearly 2½-year hiatus – since “Start Right Here” towards the end of 2020. “Desert Road” is from their album “Healer”, and it’s their first song from that album to hit my chart. “Scars In Heaven” is also from that album, but it stalled just outside of my Top 10. “Crazy People” is a fun song from the album that received airplay on some Christian radio stations. They perform that song towards the end of all of their concerts, and it’s an audience favorite to get crazy with.

“Desert Road” has been playing at some Christian radio stations for almost a year now; although, it’s a recent add at #CountUp favorite K-LOVE. Every time I hear it – I like it more. When they performed it LIVE in concert this past Thursday night – I was singing along with them from 7 rows back.

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again with the new weekend – and 4 new entries – known as #TravelThursday, #RetroFriday, #SundayScripture, and #Top10Monday.
