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.

Third Day is king of the hill this week with Aaron Shust poised to take them off of the top. Relient K, Matt Redman and Kutless are new to the game with their latest releases.

1. Mountain of God - Third Day

Off of their release Wherever You Are, "Mountain of God" is the second radio release, following "Cry Out To Jesus." A great song, this tune debuted two weeks agp.

2. My Savior, My God - Aaron Shust

26 weeks in the Top 10 isn't bad! "My Savior, My God" peaked at number one but doesn't look like it will be booted out of the Top 10 anytime soon.

3. Welcome Home - Brian Littrell

After debuting in May, this ballad has done well in the charts. Moving down from number one last week, "Welcome Home," a former "Song of the Week," is another tine that looks to be here for the long haul.

4. Breathe Into Me - Red

Debuting 8 weeks ago, "Breathe Into Me," is off of Red's debut release, End Of Silence, which hit stores on June 13th. The song rocks, the band rocks and if you like your music a little on the harder side, you'll love this one!

5. So Long Self - MercyMe

After debuting in May, "So Long Self," off of MercyMe's latest release, Coming Up To Breathe, disappeared off of the Top 10 for a short while. Catchy and a little more driving than usual MercyMe fare, this tune stands out as a winner and now it's back in the chart, where it should be.

6. High of 75 - Relient K

Debuting this week, "High of 75" is off of the 2004 release MMHMM. The usual Relient K fare, this tune will have you movin' in your chair!

8. Praise You In This Storm - Casting Crowns

The latest single off of Lifesong debuted back in February and spent six weeks at number one. As with every other Casting Crowns song, it looks like it will be in the charts until their next single release!

9. You Never Let Go - Matt Redman

Debuting this week, off of the 2006 release Passion: Everything Glorious, "You Never Let Go" is Matt Redman all the way. Easy to sing along with, catchy and above all, vertical, this is a song that will be heard long after it is no longer on the charts.

10. Strong Tower - Kutless

Debuting this week, "Strong Tower" is off of the 2005 release by the same name. Kutless, as always, nails it with this worship song that has a bit of an edge.
