Well, Matt Redman's "10000 Reasons" just continues to hang around the top of the monthly top 10s, enough so that it slid up to #1 for the year! Close behind was Bethel Music's new "Raise A Hallelujah", which hit the list along with a few other great songs from the 2019 "Victory" release. Todd Dulaney's song "Your Great Name" slid back a bit from last year's #1 spot, but is still very popular! His song "King Of Glory" held steady at #3, and he also has a newer song making the top 50 as well.
Sinach's "Way Maker" slides further up the list to #4, and the song is gaining even more steam now with the brand new release of the song by Leeland.
Other big moves up the ladder would include: Passion's "Build My Life", Phil Wickham's "Living Hope", People & Songs' "Throne Room Song", and Todd Galberth's "Lord You Are Good".
