Top Worship Songs

Every now and again I like to post the top worship songs that are impacting the Body of Christ. 

Here is the list from CCLI - however it only goes to August 2012. This list is probably the most accurate view of the top worship songs up to that time...at the bottom, I will include some of the more recent songs as well. You can click on each song, and it will take to to where you can hear it at the CCLI site (SongSelect).

The reason why these songs make the top 100 list is because they are proven, well-written songs (most of them). They have wide appeal in the Body of Christ, and they usually give us some indication of the music that is trending amongst young people. I believe it is important to study list like this, as it gives us some indication of what the Lord is saying to the Church in these days. Musicians/songwriters have always been prophets in the earth - the Lord uses them to release His sounds and songs over his people.

Check out this list - how many of these songs does your church use?
