Top 10 Weekly Christian Music Hits

For the Week Ending September 28, 2008

By Kim Jones, About.com

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.

In the Christian Music Weekly Top 10, Third Day and Brandon Heath are still holding onto the top slots as they were last week. However, everything is not the same with the rest of the chart because new music comes in this week from Norman Hutchins, Jason Champion and Dorinda Clark-Cole, bringing a mix of R&B and pure traditional gospel to the table.

1. "Call My Name" - Third Day

Third Day - RevelationEssential
"Call My Name," which debuted 18 weeks ago, is off of the new album, Revelation, which released on July 29th and rocks all the way to the top! Brad Avery may be missing, but the classic Third Day sound sure isn't.

6. "No Turning Back" - This Beautiful Republic

This Beautiful Republic - PerceptionsForefront Records
This hard-core rocker, which debuted last week at number 8, is about tolerance run amok. When you're so tolerant that anything is acceptable, sin is easy to slip into. That tolerance makes a great justification in our minds, but it's nothing more than a lame excuse.
