The official Weekly Top Christian Songs Chart is compiled each week by checking and averaging Christian charts and top play lists from all over the U.S. (such as Billboard, Cashbox and Air 1), the U.K. and Australia to find the most popular songs??.????
1. "The Only Name (Your's Will Be)" - Big Daddy Weave
Talk about shooting straight to the top! Just last week, "The Only Name (Yours Will Be)," debuted on the Top Christian Songs Chart. The song, from last year's Love Come to Life, came in at #10 and one week later, it's sitting at #1. This shouldn't be a surprise because it's a marvelous song that points us towards trying to please Jesus rather than the world.

2. "Overcomer" - Mandisa
It only took one month for "Overcomer" to make it to #1 and that is where it stayed for six weeks.The title track from Mandisa's latest album isn't just the story of her life, it's the story of our lives as well. According to the Bible, we are all overcomers. Our problem is that sometimes, in the midst of our storms, we forget that simple fact.
3. "Hello, My Name Is" - Matthew West
In its 26th week in the charts after multiple weeks at #1, "Hello, My Name Is" is still super popular. The song comes to us from Into the Light and it hits home every time you listen to it. We've all heard those little voices in our head - fear, defeat, regret and all of their little cousins. Listening to them makes us forget that we are the children of the King who are defined by His grace rather than being failures who are defined by our mistakes.

4. "We Won't Be Shaken" - Building 429
In week #15, "We Won't Be Shaken," the title track from Building 429's latest CD, has been to the top and is still hanging in there. With a mightily compelling chorus that imparts that no matter what life throws at us, we won't be shaken, this song serves as a timely reminder that when your faith is built upon the rock, it can not be moved.
5. "1 on 1" - Zacardi Cortez
Debuting this week, "1 On 1" comes to us from the upcoming project, Kerry Douglas Presents: Gospel Mix Volume VI. The very personal ballad finds Cortez singing warmly to God, longing for one on one time with Him. This song should come with a oosebumps warning!
6. "The Gift" - Donald Lawrence & Co.
In week #5, "The Gift" is off of Lawrence's September release, Best For Last. Reminding us that God gave us gifts to use for His glory (not hide them away), this is a powerful and moving song.

10. "His Kind of Love" - Group 1 Crew
The last song in this week's chart is another new tune. Coming from last year's hit release, Fearless, "His Kind of Love" is tearing the charts up in the UK and, if "He Said," the first single here in the U.S. last year, is any indication, this one will do well at radio too.
