Top 10 Chart For the Week Ending February 12, 2012

By , About.com Guide

This week, Building 429 moves into the top spot and Britt Nicole delivers a new single to fall in love with.

The official Top Christian Hits Chart is compiled by checking and averaging Christian charts and top play lists from all over the U.S. such as Billboard, Cashbox and Air 1 to find the most popular songs.

1. "Where I Belong" - Building 429

Building 429 - Listen to the SoundProvident
In week #3 and moving up from #3, "Where I Belong" is the second radio single off of Listen to the Sound. What strikes most about this song is lyrics that reach out and grab you around the throat.

"All i know is I'm not home yet
This is not where I belong
Take this world and give me Jesus
This is not where I belong."

2. "My Hope Is In You" - Aaron Shust

Aaron Shust - This Is What We BelieveCentricity Music
In week #22, "My Hope Is In You" comes to us from This Is What We Believe. The piano-driven song was written while Aaron and his wife were holding onto the only hope that they could - the hope that comes from Christ - as their son battled a severe medical condition.

3. "Strong Enough To Save" - Tenth Avenue North

Tenth Avenue North - The Light Meets The DarkReunion Records
Tenth Avenue North's "Strong Enough To Save," the second single to chart from The Light Meets The Dark, hit the Top 10 on December 5, 2011 at #2 and it started out 2012 on top. A great song, it reminds us that only God is strong enough to save us from ourselves, our pain and the tragedy that the world throws at us.

4. "We Won't Give Up" - The Afters

The Afters - Light Up The SkyINO Records

"We Won't Give Up" is the third radio single from Light Up The Sky. A flashback to the band's earlier alt-rock sound, this tune reminds us that giving up is not an option. After debuting four weeks ago at #9, this song is easing toward the top!

5. "Busted Heart (Hold On To Me)" - For King & Country

For King & Country - For King & CountryWord Records

In week #4, Joel and Luke Smallbone (Rebecca St. James' brothers) are showing the world that talent runs through the entire family! Their song, "Busted Heart (Hold On To Me)," serves as a wonderful reminder that no matter how busted up our hearts and lives may be, Jesus never lets us go.

6. "Remind Me Who I Am" - Jason Gray

Jason Gray - A Way To See In The DarkCentricity Music

In week #2, "Remind Me Who I Am" is the first single from A Way To See In The Dark. While Jason doesn't dress up his songs with a bunch of bells and whistles, his lyrics, while seemingly simple, pack a big wallop!

7. "Love Come To Life" - Big Daddy Weave

Big Daddy Weave - The Ultimate CollectionWord Records

"Love Come To Life" is one of the new songs from the band's latest release, The Ultimate Collection, which hit stores last September. It debuted 23 weeks ago and has become another fan favorite.

8. "I Need Your Glory" - Earnest Pugh

Earnest Pugh - Earnestly YoursWorldwide Music

"I Need Your Glory," which first hit the charts last September, comes from Earnestly Yours. Words like smooth, beautiful and powerful don't even come close to describing the majesty of this one.

9. "Waiting For Tomorrow" - Mandisa

Mandisa - What If We Were RealSparrow Records

"Waiting For Tomorrow" is the latest single from powerhouse Mandisa. It debuted back in September and has been rockin' the airwaves ever since. The song asks the question, why wait for tomorrow since tomorrow can become yesterday in a blink and if we don't pick a starting point, we will spend a lifetime waiting to make a change or take a step.

10. "All This Time" - Britt Nicole

Britt Nicole - All This TimeSparrow Records
Debuting this week, "All This Time" is from the upcoming March release, Gold. She says that the song is the story of how she met Jesus, a story we can all relate to.
