There are so many inspiring Christian songs that uplift me each day, including “Overwhelmed” by Big Daddy Weave. I realized that many of the songs I love have been on the top 40 Christian hits chart and were actually released last year. Sometimes I discover a new song that was released a few years ago. I became curious to find 10 great new Christian songs from 2014. Each one is powerful and tells a story. Here are 10 of my favorite new Christian hits!
