My Top 10 Hits – Week 166

Post author By Chris M. Day
Post date April 20, 2020

Every Monday I post my all-new Top 10 Christian hit music chart based on personal preference and influenced by radio airplay. It’s the continuation of a weekly hobby that goes back 40+ years. Here it is – for the week ending Sunday April 19TH 2020:

“Almost Home” – MercyMe [# 1 last week / 18TH week on chart]
“Alive And Breathing” – Matt Maher [2 / 6TH]
“I Will Fear No More” – The Afters [3 / 13TH]
“(I’ll) Never Let You Down” – Hawk Nelson Ft. Hunter & Tara [4 / 4TH]
“See A Victory” – Elevation Worship [5 / 11TH]
“Your Name Is Power” – Rend Collective [7 / 15TH]
“The God Who Stays” – Matthew West [9 / 22ND]
“Waymaker” – Michael W. Smith Ft. Vanessa Campagna [10 / 13TH]
“Amen” – Micah Tyler [6 / 9TH]
“Keep Me In The Moment” – Jeremy Camp [- / 1ST]

# 1 This Week In:
2019 – “Greatness Of Our God” – Newsboys
2018 – “Freedom Hymn” – Austin French
2017 – “Even If” – MercyMe

No change at the top – or in the Top 5. All of the action is in the bottom-half of my Top 10 as several long-running songs actually ease back up a notch or two.

Jeremy Camp is back with his follow-up to my # 1 smash “Dead Man Walking”. It’s his 4TH hit since 2017, and he joins The Afters, Hawk Nelson, and Michael W. Smith as current artists who were on my chart during previous eras. Jeremy made his debut on my chart in November 2006 with “Tonight”.

I’ve seen Jeremy LIVE in concert 4 times now (since 2015) – including twice in 2020 alone ! He puts on a solid set of his hits past and present, and I love his story as told in the recent movie “I Still Believe”.

I also love his new hit. Check out his official music video:

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again this upcoming weekend – with 4 new entries on Thursday, Friday, Sunday, and Monday. I don’t blog on Saturdays. That’s my day of rest.

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 the 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.

MercyMe are still at # 1 for an 8TH week in a row. It’s the 2ND-longest-running # 1 smash on my chart during this current era – 2ND to “Only Jesus” by Casting Crowns (10 weeks at # 1 in 2018).

Coming up on Memorial Day Weekend here in the U.S. I’ll present a special Tuesday blog post featuring all of my # 1 hits since my chart was resurrected for this current era in February of 2017. It will be a 5TH blog post for that holiday weekend, and it will become a permanent page that will be maintained on this web site. By then maybe we’ll have my 50TH # 1 hit. (“Almost Home” is # 46.)

♫ Almost home
Brother it won’t be long
Soon all your burdens will be gone
With all your strength
Sister run wild – run free
Hold up your head
Keep pressing on
We are almost home ♫

Be blessed my friends ! May the 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.

My Top 10 Hits – Week 164

Post author By Chris M. Day
Post date April 6, 2020

Every Monday I post my all-new Top 10 Christian hit music chart based on personal preference and influenced by radio airplay. Here it is – for the week ending Sunday April 05TH 2020:

“Almost Home” – MercyMe [# 1 last week / 16TH week on chart]
“I Will Fear No More” – The Afters [2 / 11TH]
“Alive And Breathing” – Matt Maher [3 / 4TH]
“Amen” – Micah Tyler [5 / 7TH]
“See A Victory” – Elevation Worship [4 / 9TH]
“Your Name Is Power” – Rend Collective [6 / 13TH]
“(I’ll) Never Let You Down” – Hawk Nelson Ft. Hunter & Tara [10 / 2ND]
“Edge Of My Seat” – TobyMac Ft. Cochren & Co. [9 / 2ND]
“The God Who Stays” – Matthew West [7 / 20TH]
“Waymaker” – Michael W. Smith Ft. Vanessa Campagna [8 / 11TH]

# 1 One Year Ago This Week:
“Confidence” – Sanctus Real

# 1 Two Years Ago This Week:
“Freedom Hymn” – Austin French

# 1 Three Years Ago This Week:
“I Have This Hope” – Tenth Avenue North

MercyMe are holding on tough at # 1 this week for a 7TH week in a row. This is the band’s 11TH week at # 1 and 71ST week on my chart over the past 3 years. It seems so long ago that MercyMe (and Jeremy Camp opening for them) was my last public event just a little over 4 weeks ago. I was with 7,000+ on that wonderful night of music and inspiration.

Today I begin my 3RD week of working at home, and over these past 2 weeks I’ve been listening to a lot of K-LOVE on the radio and over the interwebs. I’ve also been checking out SiriusXM’s “The Message”. That’s a lot of radio listening from early in the morning through early in the evening. It gets me through my long work days at home. It’s also greatly influencing my weekly music chart. This week I plan to check out WAY-FM – a national radio network that has stations up in West Palm Beach and over in Naples, but not here in Miami-Dade County. I’ll listen to it via their web site.

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again this upcoming weekend – with 4 new entries on Thursday, Good Friday, Easter Sunday, and Monday. I don’t blog on Saturdays. That’s my day of rest.

Be blessed my friends ! May the 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.

My Top 10 Hits – Week 163

Post author By Chris M. Day
Post date March 30, 2020

Every Monday I post my all-new Top 10 Christian hit music chart based on personal preference and influenced by radio airplay. Here it is – for the week ending Sunday March 29TH 2020:

“Almost Home” – MercyMe [# 1 last week / 15TH week on chart]
“I Will Fear No More” – The Afters [2 / 10TH]
“Alive And Breathing” – Matt Maher [3 / 3RD]
“See A Victory” – Elevation Worship [4 / 8TH]
“Amen” – Micah Tyler [6 / 6TH]
“Your Name Is Power” – Rend Collective [5 / 12TH]
“The God Who Stays” – Matthew West [7 / 19TH]
“Waymaker” – Michael W. Smith Ft. Vanessa Campagna [9 / 10TH]
“Edge Of My Seat” – TobyMac Ft. Cochren & Co. [- / 1ST]
“(I’ll) Never Let You Down” – Hawk Nelson Ft. Hunter & Tara [- / 1ST]

# 1 One Year Ago This Week:
“Confidence” – Sanctus Real

# 1 Two Years Ago This Week:
“No One Like Our God” – Lincoln Brewster

# 1 Three Years Ago This Week:
“I Have This Hope” – Tenth Avenue North

MercyMe is still at # 1 for a 6TH week. I rented (on demand) and watched “I Still Believe” this past Saturday afternoon. I loved it. I shed tears. Be sure to stick around for the closing credits so that you can hear Jeremy Camp perform “Almost Home” with MercyMe. Lead Singer Bart Millard served as Executive Producer, and Jeremy Camp was actively involved throughout the retelling of his story. #TeamBelieve

TobyMac is back with his 6TH hit since 2017 / 8TH hit since 2007. It’s a song that took a long time for me to like. I really didn’t like this song for the first few months that I heard it, but it’s gradually grown on me, and now it’s worthy to be one of my Top 10 favorite songs right now.

Finally Hawk Nelson are back with a track that they began performing LIVE in concert in 2017. Its official lyric video was dropped to YouTube a little over 2 years ago on March 09TH 2018, and many radio stations picked-up on it in October 2018. It reached the Top 25 nationwide in February 2019. Better late than never for this unusual dance track for God that channels an earlier era of my hit music chart when European trance and techno music dominated the notches.

Be blessed my friends ! May the 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.
