For the Week Ending April 27, 2008

By Kim Jones, About.com

The official Top 10 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.

MercyMe and Matthew West sit on top on the charts during the last week of April. Jadon Lavik joins the chart toppers with the delivery of a traditional hymn done in a modern, yet still traditional way.

1. "God With Us" - MercyMe

MercyMe - All That Is Within MeINO
Moving up to the top spot from #5 last week, this tune is saturating the airwaves all over the country. Think Casting Crowns' "Who Am I" and you'll get an idea of the theme behind "God With Us."

    Who are we that You would be mindful of us what do...

MercyMe has hit the bulls-eye again with this first single off of their latest album, All That Is Within Me.

Chris Tomlin - See The MorningCourtesy of: EMI
Chris Tomlin puts a new spin on a classic hymn by adding the very powerful praise chorus "My Chains Are Gone."

This song may not have won the Dove Worship Song of the Year award, but Chris Tomlin won enough awards to make up for it.
