Post author By Chris M. Day
Post date November 28, 2022

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 November 27TH 2022 – the 302ND week of this current era that began on Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017:

TW	LW	WKS	SONG TITLE	ARTIST / SITE
1	1	9	Ain’t Nobody [3RD week @ # 1]	Cody Carnes
2	2	6	Who I Am	Ben Fuller
3	3	16	Good Morning Mercy	Jason Crabb
4	4	15	New Creation	Mac Powell
5	5	6	Then Christ Came	MercyMe
6	6	9	Love Me Like I Am	for King & Country Ft. Jordin Sparks
7	7	12	Miracle Power	We The Kingdom
8	8	14	Build A Boat	Colton Dixon
9	9	2	There Is Freedom	Cochren & Co.
10	10	6	Same God	Elevation Worship

# 1 This Week In:
2021 – “On Our Way” – MercyMe Ft. Sam Wesley
2020 – “Jericho” – Andrew Ripp
2019 – “Dead Man Walking” – Jeremy Camp
2018 – “Even Then” – Micah Tyler
2017 – “Different” – Micah Tyler

302 – It’s the 302ND week of this 3RD era of my long-running weekly music chart. The 301ST week was not published last Monday due to my very special look-back at my 30 biggest hits of the first 300 weeks of my chart. This is the propreantepenultimate chart of 2022 with 4 more to go during the month of December. On Monday January 02ND 2023 I’ll present “My Top 22 Of 2022”.

1 – This edition marks the 37TH anniversary of my very first published weekly music chart. Back in 1985 I put pen and pencil to loose-leaf notebook paper, and I wrote down my Top 20 hits of the week in a magazine format. “We Built This City” from Starship was my first # 1 smash. “Running Up That Hill” (originally titled “A Deal With God”) from Kate Bush was also on my first chart at #11. It’s enjoyed quite the resurgence in 2022. In fact it’s been a bigger worldwide smash this year than it was in 1985 ! #StrangerThings

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again with the new weekend – and 5 new entries – starting with a #SpecialWednesday blog post – followed by #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.

Post author By Chris M. Day
Post date November 21, 2022

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. But this week it’s a special chart to celebrate the past 300 weeks. It’s my #Top30Of300 !

300 WEEKS – We made it. From February 2017 to November 2022 – 5 years and 9 months – and still going strong. It’s been a fun 300 weeks. It’s also been a comforting 300 weeks during these troubled times in the world. The resurrection of my music chart after a 7-year hiatus from 2010 to 2017 was due to the discovery of K-LOVE – the nationwide Christian Adult Contemporary radio station. K-LOVE has been a blessing in my life, as it has been the soundtrack of the renaissance of my fantastic journey in Christ. I’m looking forward to the next 300 weeks, for the best is yet to come !

MATTHEW WEST – I had never heard of him before 2017, but now he’s my favorite singer. He’s hit my weekly chart with 7 songs, and 5 of them have gone to # 1. (2 peaked at # 2.) 4 of his 5 # 1 hits are in my Top 30 above. His last # 1 – “Me On Your Mind” – fell well short of my Top 30. He’s been on my chart a combined 143 weeks (more than any other artist) – with just 9 overlapping weeks. So that’s 134 out of 300 weeks, for a Matthew West presence of 44.7% of the era.

PRAISE TO OUR GOD – What a great chart that praises and worships our God and gives Him all of the glory. Each song on here makes me smile – and sing along. Some have a beat that make me want to dance for Jesus. If you’re not familiar with one or any of these songs then use Google, Bing, Amazon, Apple, or YouTube to check them out. Enjoy the music, but especially listen to the words. The words of these songs represent God’s Word. Any one of these songs can change a life forever.

He has given me a new song to sing – a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see what He has done and be amazed. They will put their trust in the LORD. (Psalm 40:3 NLT)

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again with the new weekend – and 4 new entries – starting with a special #ThanksgivingThursday, and continuing with #RetroFriday, #SundayScripture, and #Top10Monday.

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 300

Post author By Chris M. Day
Post date November 14, 2022

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 November 13TH 2022 – the 300TH week of this current era that began on Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017:

TW	LW	WKS	SONG TITLE	ARTIST / SITE
1	2	7	Ain’t Nobody [1ST week @ # 1]	Cody Carnes
2	3	4	Who I Am	Ben Fuller
3	1	13	New Creation	Mac Powell
4	4	14	Good Morning Mercy	Jason Crabb
5	5	21	Thank God For Sunday Morning	Cochren & Co.
6	6	7	Love Me Like I Am	for King & Country Ft. Jordin Sparks
7	7	4	Then Christ Came	MercyMe
8	9	12	Build A Boat	Colton Dixon
9	10	10	Miracle Power	We The Kingdom
10	8	4	Same God	Elevation Worship

# 1 This Week In:
2021 – “On Our Way” – MercyMe Ft. Sam Wesley
2020 – “No Hold On Me” – Matty Mullins
2019 – “Fear No More” – Building 429
2018 – “Only Jesus” – Casting Crowns
2017 – “Different” – Micah Tyler

NEW # 1 – “Ain’t Nobody” gonna deny Worship Pastor Cody Carnes the # 1 spot on my chart this week. He reaches the top after a week each at # 6, # 5, # 4, # 3, and # 2. Musically I love the upbeat song. Lyrically it’s a powerful song of testimony for the One who rescued and saved us:

♫ Ain’t nobody love me like Jesus
Ain’t nobody love me this good
Ain’t nobody love me like Jesus
And I know I know nobody could
Tell me who could give me this freedom
Tell me who could get me this far
Ain’t nobody love me like Jesus
And I know I know nobody could ♫

300 – This is my 300TH weekly music chart since February 2017 when I resurrected it after a 7-year hiatus. At the restart – I was unsure as to whether or not it would survive a year – much less almost 6 years. My previous attempt at a weekly Christian music chart fizzled after less than 3½ years during the early few years of my fantastic journey with Christ. Next week I’ll celebrate 300 weeks of this current era by presenting my Top 30 hits of the past 300 weeks. Spoiler Alert: No current song is on my Top 30, but one came close – “Thank God For Sunday Morning” – which landed at # 34.

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 #Top30Of300Monday.

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.

NEW CREATION – Mac Powell spends a 2ND week at # 1 with “New Creation”, and it’s likely his final week atop my chart as both Cody Carnes and Ben Fuller climb a notch closer to the top spot. I’ll see how radio airplay works out for both tracks in the upcoming week.

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