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 Jeremy Camp hold the top slots this week and new music from Francesca Battistelli and Fireflight stirs up the pot a bit.

1. "You Reign" - MercyMe

MercyMe - All That Is Within MeINO
"You Reign" from All That Is Within Me is the second radio single to do really well. This week marks the second week it has been in the Top 10 and the second week it has sat at the #1 spot.

3. "Call My Name" - Third Day

Third Day - RevelationEssential
"Call My Name," which debuted 8 weeks ago, is off of the upcoming new album, Revelation, which releases on July 29th and rocks! Brad Avery may be missing, but the classic Third Day sound sure isn't. This rocker is just a taste of what we have to look forward to in July.

Tenth Avenue North - Over and UnderneathIntegrity
"Love is Here," which is at week #7 in the Top 10, is off of the band's debut CD, Over and Underneath. Soft rock with touching lyrics, this tune could easily be an "Unplugged" version of Switchfoot.

6. "Captives Come Home" - Run Kid Run

Run Kid Run - Love at the CoreTooth & Nail Records
"Captives Come Home," which debuted in early June, is from the April release, Love At The Core. In a word, this song is big ... big vocals, big chorus, big punch.

7. "I'm Letting Go" - Francesca Battistelli

Francesca Battistelli - My Paper HeartFervent Records
Debuting this week, "I'm Letting Go" is off of Francesca's debut album with Fervent, My Paper Heart. The song, just like the lady herself, is catchy and the pop tune is a great taste of what's to come on the rest of the album.

8. "The Hunger" - Fireflight

Fireflight - UnbreakableFlicker Records
Debuting this week, "The Hunger" is off of the March release, Unbreakable. Dawn Richardson's voice absolutely shines on this song and the message (stuff won't fill the God-shaped hole in our lives) is right on.

9. "All Because Of Jesus" - Fee

Fee - We ShineINO
Moving down from #4, "All Because of Jesus" comes to us from Fee's 2007 release, We Shine. You've heard this tune before because Casting Crowns covered it on The Altar And The Door, but you haven't heard it like this.

10. "Mighty To Save" - Laura Story

Laura Story - Great God Who SavesINO
"Mighty To Save," which we first saw in May, comes to us from Laura's March 2008 release, Great God Who Saves. Laura's cover of the Hillsong tune gives it a pop flavor and she definitely makes it her own.
