The official Top 10 Weekly Christian hit songs list is compiled by your Guide by checking and averaging Christian charts from all over the U.S. such as Billboard and R&R.
Jeremy Camp and Tenth Avenue North hold the top spots this week with newcomers Kurt Carr & The Kurt Carr Singers, Hezekiah Walker & LFC and Mark Harris add different musical flavors to the recipe.
1. "There Will Be a Day" - Jeremy Camp
This powerful and passionate song, in its second week in the #1 spot, comes to us from Jeremy's new release, Speaking Louder Than Before. The song has set a ton of records at radio and once you hear it, you'll certainly understand why. Outstanding!
2. "By Your Side" - Tenth Avenue North
"By Your Side," which debuted in November, is the second radio single from the band's debut album, Over and Underneath. With very Jon Forman sounding vocals, the song is written from the perspective of Jesus himself, and asks some hard questions about why we don't seem to feel like he's enough. This week it moves up one spot from number three.
3. "Lose My Soul" - tobyMac f/ Kirk Franklin & Mandisa
"Lose My Soul," from Portable Sounds, features Kirk Franklin and Mandisa as well as lyrics that let you know, beyond doubt, just how sincere about living his life to God's standards tobyMac really is. This song came in at #17 in the Top 40 Songs of 2008.
4. "Free To Be Me" - Francesca Battistelli
After debuting last week, this song is moving up the charts like a bullet. The upbeat "Free To Be Me" is the second radio release from My Paper Heart to make the Top 10.
5. "Give Me Your Eyes" - Brandon Heath
"Give Me Your Eyes," which was the #8 song for 2008, is off of Brandon's latest release, What If We, which hit stores on August 19, 2008. A soft melody carries a big stick on this tune.
6. "Revelation" - Third Day
"Revelation," which we first saw in December, is the title track and second radio single off of the new album, Revelation, which released on July 29th. This one will rock all the way to the top! Brad Avery may be missing, but the classic Third Day sound sure isn't.
7. "Peace and Favor Rest on Us" - Kurt Carr & The Kurt Carr Singers
Debuting this week, "Peace and Favor Rest on Us" comes to us from the two disc set, Just The Beginning. Kurt really goes back to his roots on this one and in a word, it's infectious.
8. "Souled Out" - Hezekiah Walker & LFC
Another newcomer this week, Hezekiah Walker & The Love Fellowship Crusade Choir bring you to your feet with the title track from their latest release. Fun with a punch - that's "Souled Out."
9. "One True God" - Mark Harris
Yet another new face on the chart, Mark Harris practically defines inspiration with "One True God."
10. "Keys to the Kingdom" - Group 1 Crew
Group 1 Crew is our last new face this week with the powerful, fun and funky "Keys to the Kingdom."
