On Top Gospel Albums, Todd Dulaney scores his second straight and total No. 1 with Your Great Name (a career-best 5,000 units). The former New York Mets minor league baseball player’s previous set, A Worshipper’s Heart, launched at No. 1 on May 7, 2016.
Lauren Daigle banks her third Christian Airplay No. 1, as “O Lord” rises 2-1, increasing 3 percent to 9 million audience impressions. Daigle’s “Trust in You” ruled for nine weeks starting April 9, 2016, and “First” led for three frames beginning Oct. 24, 2015.
