My Top 10 Hits – Week 272

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 40+ years. Here’s this week’s chart:

#TOP10MONDAY WEEK ENDING – SUNDAY MAY 01ST 2022 WEEK 272
TW LW WKS SONG TITLE ARTIST / SITE
1 2 6 Wonder Working
[1ST week @ # 1]		 All Creatures
2 1 14 See Me Through It Brandon Heath
3 3 6 Fill My Cup Andrew Ripp
4 5 12 Sunday Sermons Anne Wilson
5 4 14 Brighter Days Blessing Offor
6 6 8 Egypt Cory Asbury
7 7 4 Desesperado Evan Craft
8 8 7 Fake It Tauren Wells
9 9 4 The Commission Cain
10 10 3 The Healing Blanca Ft. Dante Bowe

# 1 This Week In:
2021 – “Fires” – Jordan St. Cyr
2020 – “Almost Home” – MercyMe
2019 – “Alive” – Big Daddy Weave
2018 – “Freedom Hymn” – Austin French
2017 – “Even If” – MercyMe

ALL CREATURES – Chris Cron (lead-singer) and Ben Thompson (producer) are the duo known as All Creatures, and their “[wonder working]” is my new # 1 smash – and the 73RD # 1 smash of the current era (over the past 272 weeks). If you’re keeping track (who is ?) then that’s a new # 1 smash every 3.726 weeks. We’ll see if “[wonder working] exceeds that average over the next 3 weeks.

EGYPT – Cory Asbury’s 4TH hit on my chart could be his biggest. “Egypt” follows-up “Reckless Love” (# 8 in 2018), “The Father’s House” (# 2 in 2020), and “Sparrows” (# 4 in 2021). “Egypt” is about salvation. “You stepped into my Egypt”. You rescued me. You saved me. You set me free.

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again this upcoming weekend – with 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 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 271

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 40+ years. Here’s this week’s chart:

#TOP10MONDAY WEEK ENDING – SUNDAY APRIL 24TH 2022 WEEK 271
TW LW WKS SONG TITLE ARTIST / SITE
1 1 13 See Me Through It
[2ND week @ # 1]		 Brandon Heath
2 3 5 Wonder Working All Creatures
3 4 5 Fill My Cup Andrew Ripp
4 2 13 Brighter Days Blessing Offor
5 6 11 Sunday Sermons Anne Wilson
6 7 7 Egypt Cory Asbury
7 8 3 Desesperado Evan Craft
8 9 6 Fake It Tauren Wells
9 – 3 The Commission Cain
10 10 2 The Healing Blanca Ft. Dante Bowe

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

ALL CREATURES – Chris Cron (lead-singer) and Ben Thompson (producer) are the duo known as All Creatures. They’ve got my # 2 hit of the week for the 2ND week in a row with the lively “[wonder working]” that they wrote together. It was actually released as a digital single last July, and it received substantial airplay at U.S. Christian radio last September, October, and November. K-LOVE picked-up on it a couple of months ago, but airplay has been rather light thus far. I love the edgy sound of it.

♫ Oh I belong
To a wonder-working God
Making a way like only He could
And all I can say is God is good
Oh I belong
To a wonder-working God
Trading my chains for victory
My God is working a wonder in me ♫

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

My Top 10 Hits – Week 270

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 40+ years. Here’s this week’s chart:

#TOP10MONDAY WEEK ENDING – SUNDAY APRIL 17TH 2022 WEEK 270
TW LW WKS SONG TITLE ARTIST / SITE
1 2 12 See Me Through It
[1ST week @ # 1]		 Brandon Heath
2 1 12 Brighter Days Blessing Offor
3 4 4 Wonder Working All Creatures
4 5 4 Fill My Cup Andrew Ripp
5 3 12 Holy Spirit Come Patrick Mayberry
6 6 10 Sunday Sermons Anne Wilson
7 10 6 Egypt Cory Asbury
8 9 2 Desesperado Evan Craft
9 8 5 Fake It Tauren Wells
10 – 1 The Healing Blanca Ft. Dante Bowe

# 1 This Week In:
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

NEW # 1 – After 4 out of the past 5 weeks at # 2 Brandon Heath finally ascends to my top spot with his peppy “See Me Through It”. It’s about turning to God when times get tough – when the road gets rough. In the trial and the pain – fire and the rain. With a full-scale attack – devil on my back. I know You’re gonna see me through it.

NEW # 1 NATIONWIDE – Jordan Feliz rises to # 1 nationwide with the most played song (by far) at U.S. Christian radio – “Jesus Is Coming Back”. It also spent 2 weeks at # 1 on my chart 6 and 7 weeks ago. It’s Jordan’s first # 1 song nationwide since his gold-certified debut smash in 2015 – “The River”.

FATHER STU – I saw “Father Stu” at a local movie theatre last Tuesday afternoon (first showing nationwide). It stars Mark Wahlberg as boxer-turned-priest Stuart Long (1963-2014). Mel Gibson plays his dad, and Jacki Weaver plays his mom. It was written and directed by Rosalind Ross – Mel Gibson’s partner. It’s touted by the media as a faith-based film, but I wouldn’t describe it that way. I think it’s more of a movie about a guy who turned to God. There’s a difference between a big-budget Hollywood movie about God and an independent faith-based film made far away from Hollywood and funded entirely by born-again Christians. Sometimes Hollywood gets it right, and sometimes not so much. I have mixed feelings about “Father Stu”. It was a good story, but I was turned-off by its extreme profanity, and heavy drinking and smoking throughout. (It’s Rated-R as a result.)

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

My Top 10 Hits – Week 269

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 40+ years. Here’s this week’s chart:

#TOP10MONDAY WEEK ENDING – SUNDAY APRIL 10TH 2022 WEEK 269

2020 – “Almost Home” – MercyMe
2019 – “Confidence” – Sanctus Real
2018 – “Freedom Hymn” – Austin French
2017 – “I Have This Hope” – Tenth Avenue North

LAST WEEK – So you missed last week’s edition ? No you didn’t. It wasn’t published. But it was updated, and there were big chart moves with 8 out of 10 hits moving up or down and just 2 non-movers. This week there are 8 non-movers, as my chart takes a breather after last week’s hyperactivity.

BRANDON HEATH – It was good to see Brandon perform “See Me Through It” LIVE on the Huckabee stage a couple of Saturday nights ago. The song sounded great with Tre’ Corley and The Music City Connection joining Brandon along with Mike Huckabee on bass. Not too many shows on TV will give Christian artists a chance to perform their latest or classic hits, but Huckabee is an exception to that rule. It’s also a solid weekly talk show that informs and entertains. You can catch it on TBN every Saturday night at 8 PM ET with an encore every Sunday night at 9 PM ET.

This blog is # 36 worldwide on the Top 80 Christian Music Blogs and Websites chart. Thank You for including us Feedspot !

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again this upcoming weekend – with 5 new entries on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Sunday, and Monday. I don’t blog on Saturdays. That’s my day of rest.
