That’s right! Jeremy Camp is back on top for the 44th time in his career with his song These Days!
Here is my summary of the article:
Jeremy Camp Earns His 44th No. 1 Song With ‘These Days’
Jeremy Camp is back at number one for the 44th time in his career with his song ‘These Days.’ This song is described as a living-in-the-moment song that is the featured song for his album ‘Deeper Waters’. Deeper Waters topped the Billboard Top 200 Christian chart when it was released. Deeper Waters is also the highest album streaming debut of his career thus far.
This album is described as a pop-infused reflection of the past two-plus decades of his life, as well as the appreciation for the moment of the now. He also describes this as a reflection of his personal experiences, his steadfast faith, and his innate gift of storytelling.
Jeremy Camp will be performing at the Alive Music Festival in Mineral City, Ohio on Friday, July 19th.
Here is the lyric video for These Days:

Today’s Monday Motivation song comes from Josh Baldwin feat. Jenn Johnson and their song Made For More. This song reminds us that we weren’t made to be tending a grave, we are called by name, born and raised, back to life again, we are made for more! This song picks me up when I am down because I know I am made for more!
Here are the song lyrics that stood out to me:
I know who I am ’cause I know who You are The cross of salvation was only the start Now I am chosen, free and forgiven I have a future and it’s worth the living.
‘Cause I wasn’t made to be tending a grave I was called by name Born and raised back to life again I was made for more So why would I make a bed in my shame When a fountain of grace is running my way I know I am Yours And I was made for more.
Here is the music video for Made For More:
Our 5:00 hour song is Firm Foundation (He Won’t) by Cody Carnes. This song reminds us that Christ is our firm foundation! He is the rock that we are standing on. Without Him we are nothing!
Here are the lyrics that stood out to me:
Christ is my firm foundation The rock on which I stand When everything around me is shaken I’ve never been more glad
That I put my faith in Jesus ‘Cause He’s never let me down He’s faithful through generations So why would He fail now? He won’t!
Here is the lyric video for Firm Foundation (He Won’t):
