With Tenth Avenue North’s ascension to #1 on the Billboard Hot Christian Songs chart with You Are More, this is the first time in recent memory that we have had three number one hits consecutively in three weeks on the chart. Two weeks ago, Brandon Heath ruled the chart for an eighth week with Your Love; last week MercyMe earned another number one hit in the form of Beautiful, and this week, like mentioned, Tenth Avenue North scored its second #1 hit. I kinda like the fast turnover right now, it makes for an exciting chart. (Fingers crossed that Frannie Battistelli will claim #1 next with with This is the Stuff.)
There are no new songs in the Top 10 this week (although Chris August 7×70) is knocking at the door of the Top 10, rising 16-11 this week). Greatest Gainer is Laura Story Blessings, up 37-25 this week. New debuts include Third Day’s Make Your Move (#44), 33Miles’ Arms That Hold the Universe (#47, finally!), and NewSong’s One True God (#49, in picture).
