Grammy Award winner Chris Tomlin's new single, "Good Good Father," is resonating with listeners everywhere and hasn't left the top spot on the iTunes Christian songs chart since its Oct. 2 release - already spending almost four weeks at No. 1.

On Billboard, Tomlin is holding the No. 1 spot on the Christian digital songs chart for the second week in a row as "Good Good Father" marks his fourth single to top that chart. The track also hit the top 10 on the hot Christian songs chart, making it his 22nd top 10, officially breaking the record for the most ever top 10s on that chart. The song has also shot into the top 20 on both the AC monitored and national Christian audience charts. 

Last week, Tomlin debuted his second Christmas album, "ADORE: Christmas Songs of Worship," which instantly shot to the No. 1 spot on iTunes holiday albums chart. The album was recorded live at Ocean Way Studios in Nashville and features special guests Lauren Daigle, All Sons & Daughters and Kristyn Getty.

Tomlin is currently on the second leg of what's already been the biggest tour of his career, the "Love Ran Red Tour." Featuring special guests Rend Collective, the 22-city tour kicked off in Nashville earlier this month. So far, the tour has helped raise more than $700,000 for CURE International, which helps fund surgeries for children with physical disabilities in developing countries. Tomlin has partnered with CURE for the "Love Ran Red Tour" and, this season, he is giving away "ADORE: Christmas Songs of Worship" to anyone who donates $50 or more to the organization.

Referred to by TIME Magazine as "most likely the most often sung artist anywhere," Tomlin consistently has several songs in the top 20 of the top 100 CCLI songs.

BMI and GMA Dove Awards' 2014 Songwriter of the Year, Tomlin's "How Great Is Our God" was his first No. 1 on the CCLI top 25, becoming one of the fasting-rising modern day hymns in CCLI chart history. In addition to having sold more than 7 million albums and over 8.9 million digital tracks, Tomlin made history as his No. 1 single, "Jesus Messiah (Hello Love)," garnered 97 adds at radio, making it the biggest ever add date in Christian radio history, and recently tied the record for most top 10 in the history of Billboard's hot Christian songs chart as his current hit, "At the Cross (Love Ran Red)," broke into the top 10.

In the midst of his record-breaking success, Tomlin continues touring and leading at Passion Conference gatherings across the U.S. and worldwide, including his recent "Worship Night In America" events, which sold out NYC's Madison Square Garden, Denver's Red Rock's and Sacramento's Sleep Train Arena.
