on Friday, 01 April 2016. Posted in Top 10 Downloads, Blogs

During the month of MARCH 2016, the Top 10 most downloaded chord charts from WorshipReady.com were (previous month rankings in parenthesis - "NL" means it was not in the top 10 list in the previous period):

  1. In Christ Alone - Passion / Keith & Kristyn Getty   (NL)
  2. 10,000 Reasons (Bless The Lord) - Matt Redman / Jesus Culture  (#4)
  3. Set A Fire - Jesus Culture  (NL)
  4. O Praise The Name (Anástasis) - Hillsong Worship  (NL)
  5. Oceans (Where Feet May Fail) - Hillsong United  (#3)
  6. Forever - Bethel / Kari Jobe  (NL)
  7. Holy Spirit - Bryan & Katie Torwalt / Jesus Culture  (#1)
  8. Blessed Assurance - Elevation Worship  (NL)
  9. Be Lifted High - Bethel Music  (NL)
  10. This Is Amazing Grace - Phil Wickham  (#7)

"In Christ Alone" hits the #1 spot for the first time in quite a while, most likely due to the Easter season! Most of the activity was from the Passion version of the song.

Now, looking at a longer span of time really gives a better picture of the popularity of a song in this type of view. So, here is another top 10 list, but for the 3-month span of 2016 1st Quarter (Jan - Mar). The "(NL)" in this case states that a song was not on the top 10 list for 4th Quarter 2015:

1st Quarter 2016 Top 10

  1. Good Good Father - Chris Tomlin / Housefires  (#5)
  2. Holy Spirit - Jesus Culture / Bryan & Katie Torwalt  (#4)
  3. Oceans (Where Feet May Fail) - Hillsong United (#3)
  4. 10,000 Reasons (Bless The Lord) - Matt Redman / Jesus Culture  (#6)
  5. In Christ Alone - Passion / Keith & Kristyn Getty  (NL)
  6. This Is Amazing Grace - Phil Wickham / Bethel Music  (NL)
  7. Every Praise - Hezekiah Walker  (#8)
  8. This I Believe (The Creed) - Hillsong Worship  (NL)
  9. At The Cross (Love Ran Red) - Chris Tomlin  (NL)
  10. Forever - Bethel / Kari Jobe  (NL)

"Good Good Father" hits the #1 spot for the first time in a quarter! Most of the activity was from the Chris Tomlin version of the song. The previous quarter included a lot of Christmas activity of course, so many of the songs this quarter were not listed last time... and this quarter was heavily influenced by Easter as would be expected!
