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.
Matthew West and Francesca Battistelli sit in the top spots this week in the Top 10 while a powerful new worship ballad from Lincoln Brewster joins them as our newest song in the chart.
1. "The Motions" - Matthew West
Sparrow
The last single release from Something To Say spent 20 weeks in the Top 10 and was the #1 song of 2008. Does "The Motions," a powerful song about living your life instead of just going through the motions, have what it takes to do as well as "You Are Everything?" With this song being in the top 3 on seven different charts this week, I would have to say yes! 
2. "Free To Be Me" - Francesca Battistelli
Fervent Records
After debuting eleven weeks ago, this song moved 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.

3. "Finally Home" - MercyMe
INO
"Finally Home" is the latest single release from All That Is Within Me and this is the 8th week we've seen it. Bart Millard's favorite song on the album because it reminds him of the day that he'll get to see his dad again, this emotional tune resonates with listeners because we all have loved ones that we long to see again.

4. "Peace and Favor Rest on Us" - Kurt Carr & The Kurt Carr Singers
Gospocentric
"Peace and Favor Rest on Us," which debuted 10 weeks ago, 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.
5. "By Your Side" - Tenth Avenue North
Integrity
"By Your Side," which debuted last 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.
6. "God You Reign" - Lincoln Brewster
Integrity
Debuting this week, the latest Lincoln Brewster worship song comes from Today Is the Day. and this beautiful yet simple ballad should be a favorite for years to come.
7. "Souled Out" - Hezekiah Walker & LFC
Verity Records
Hezekiah Walker & The Love Fellowship Crusade Choir, which we first saw ten weeks ago, bring you to your feet with the title track from their latest release. Fun with a punch - that's "Souled Out."
8. "Never Be The Same" - Red
Essential
"Never Be The Same" is the second radio single we've seen from Innocence & Instinct and it made its debut on the charts five weeks ago. This powerful tune is about seeing someone you love lose their way - something we all can relate to.
9. "I Will Rise" - Chris Tomlin
EMI
"I Will Rise," which debuted two weeks ago, is the latest single off of Chris Tomlin's 2008 release Hello Love.
10. "Stand Up" - Fireflight
Flicker Records
"Stand Up," which debuted last week, is a rockin' reminder that no matter how hard your struggles may be, you're not alone and God's strength shows through your weakness.
