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 October 05TH 2025 – the 451ST week of this current era that began on Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017:

GOD DID IT – Micah Tyler’s former # 1 smash reaches my Top 40 of this era. It’s 1 of my 40 biggest songs over the past 451 weeks. In fact it’s # 35. It’s also – spoiler alert – my current # 1 smash of the entire year thus far !

ONE-HIT WONDER – Lincoln Brewster had one hit on my chart from January to April of 2018, and it was a big one. It spent 16 weeks in my Top 10, 9 weeks in my Top 3, and 4 weeks at # 1. It was my # 8 hit of 2018. Lincoln proclaims that there is “No One Like Our God”.

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.

My Top 10 Hits – Week 450

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 September 28TH 2025 – the 450TH week of this current era that began on Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017:

TW	LW	WKS	SONG TITLE	ARTIST / SITE
1	1	16	Breakdown [5TH week @ # 1]	Andrew Ripp
2	2	15	What An Awesome God	Phil Wickham
3	3	4	I’ve Just Seen Too Much	Big Daddy Weave
4	4	8	Preach	Ryan Stevenson Ft. Matt Hammitt
5	7	9	Can’t Steal My Joy	Josiah Queen X Brandon Lake
6	5	19	God Did It	Micah Tyler
7	6	21	The King Is In The Room	Phil Wickham
8	8	4	Still	Crowder
9	9	7	Let The Church Sing	Tauren Wells
10	10	2	Get Behind Me	Emerson Day

# 1 This Week In:
2024 – “Up + Up” – Colton Dixon
2023 – “Praise You Anywhere” – Brandon Lake
2022 – “Good Morning Mercy” – Jason Crabb
2021 – “Into The Wild” – Josh Baldwin
2020 – “God So Loved” – We The Kingdom
2019 – “Nobody (But Jesus)” – Casting Crowns Ft. Matthew West
2018 – “Only Jesus” – Casting Crowns
2017 – “Broken Things” – Matthew West

JOSIAH QUEEN – His 3RD hit on my chart is now his 3RD Top 5 hit, as “Can’t Steal My Joy” continues its slow ascent. You may think that it’s a quick breakout smash for Josiah and Brandon Lake, but the song has been around all year. It was actually released as a single way back during the early part of January, and some Christian CHR (contemporary hit radio) stations have actually been playing it ever since the start. It’s currently # 2 nationally, and it’ll likely reach # 1 next week. And there’s a possibility that it could reach the top of my chart either next week or soon after.

ONE-HIT WONDER – 7eventh Time Down from Mount Vernon Kentucky have been rockin’ together for Christ for 21 years. You may know them for “Just Say Jesus” in 2013, or perhaps “God Is On The Move” from 2015 into 2016. But it was a late-2017 / early-2018 hit that reached # 2 on my chart for 4 weeks in a row and spent 16 weeks overall. That was “Only King Forever”, and it was the first and only time that they appeared on my chart.

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.

My Top 10 Hits – Week 449

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 September 21ST 2025 – the 449TH week of this current era that began on Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017:

TW	LW	WKS	SONG TITLE	ARTIST / SITE
1	1	15	Breakdown [4TH week @ # 1]	Andrew Ripp
2	2	14	What An Awesome God	Phil Wickham
3	4	3	I’ve Just Seen Too Much	Big Daddy Weave
4	3	7	Preach	Ryan Stevenson Ft. Matt Hammitt
5	5	18	God Did It	Micah Tyler
6	6	20	The King Is In The Room	Phil Wickham
7	9	8	Can’t Steal My Joy	Josiah Queen X Brandon Lake
8	8	3	Still	Crowder
9	10	6	Let The Church Sing	Tauren Wells
10	–	1	Get Behind Me	Emerson Day

ANDREW RIPP – His “Breakdown” becomes the first song to spend more than 3 weeks at # 1 since Steven Curtis Chapman did it with “Do It Again” in December and January. (That song spent 7 weeks at # 1.)

ONE-HIT WONDER – Time for a correction. Tiffany Arbuckle Lee – AKA Plumb – is not a one-hit wonder. Last week I claimed that her late-2017 hit “God Help Me” was the first and only time she appeared on my chart. Wrong. It was exactly 19 years ago next weekend that Plumb entered my chart at # 25 with an EDM version of her original Christian pop song “Cut”. The Bronleewe & Bose Radio Edit was actually a smash hit on the secular dance charts as well as in dance clubs nationwide. So Plumb secured two hits on my chart 11 years apart in 2006 and 2017.

NEXT WEEK – My 450TH chart (since the reboot of February 2017) will be published next Monday, but slightly later than normal. It should appear online by 3 PM U.S. East Coast time (7 PM UTC).

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.

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 September 14TH 2025 – the 448TH week of this current era that began on Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017:

TW	LW	WKS	SONG TITLE	ARTIST / SITE
1	1	14	Breakdown [3RD week @ # 1]	Andrew Ripp
2	2	13	What An Awesome God	Phil Wickham
3	3	6	Preach	Ryan Stevenson Ft. Matt Hammitt
4	7	2	I’ve Just Seen Too Much	Big Daddy Weave
5	4	17	God Did It	Micah Tyler
6	5	19	The King Is In The Room	Phil Wickham
7	6	24	Jesus Loves	Zach Williams
8	10	2	Still	Crowder
9	9	7	Can’t Steal My Joy	Josiah Queen X Brandon Lake
10	–	5	Let The Church Sing	Tauren Wells

# 1 This Week In:
2024 – “Up + Up” – Colton Dixon
2023 – “Praise You Anywhere” – Brandon Lake
2022 – “Hold You Tight” – Dan Bremnes
2021 – “Into The Wild” – Josh Baldwin
2020 – “God So Loved” – We The Kingdom
2019 – “Nobody (But Jesus)” – Casting Crowns Ft. Matthew West
2018 – “Only Jesus” – Casting Crowns
2017 – “Broken Things” – Matthew West

CROWDER – His 11TH hit since 2017 – “Still” – climbs 2 notches this week to # 8. It’s a song that seems to be growing on me with each new listen. It’s approaching the Top 10 nationally. Crowder sings that “He’s working on me – still. Changing me piece by piece – still. Making me better. Gonna do His thing.”

ONE-HIT WONDER – She’s Tiffany Arbuckle Lee, but we know her as Plumb. She spent 14 weeks on my chart from September to December 2017 with “God Help Me”. It was the title track of her EP at the time. Sadly that’s the first and only time she appeared on my chart.

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.
