Lauren Daigle ‘You Say’ Remains #1 On Billboard Hot Christian Songs
Written by Heartsong Live on 31st July 2018
Lauren Daigle beats her inner negative voices to believe in her own strength in “You Say.” The song jumped 33-1 on the Hot Christian Songs chart (dated July 28). Daigle’s worth, according to the song’s lyrics, is found in God and whatever He says about her strength and ability to be loved. The humbling gospel ballad heals listeners and assures them of a victory over their struggles if they put their trust in the right hands.
Daigle earns her third Hot Christian Songs leader, sparked by the song’s first-week sales of 37,000 (her best weekly sum) in the week ending July 19, according to Nielsen Music. The track opens atop Christian Digital Song Sales, where it’s Daigle’s fourth No. 1 and her first to debut at the summit.
According to Lauren Daigle, “It’s incredible to see how ‘You Say’ has connected, not only with fans, but with people who might never have heard my music before,” “It’s a powerful thing, to see how a song can bring people together and create a sense of community. I’m honored to see how unreal the support has been and I cannot wait for everyone to hear the entirety of Look Up Child.”
