If it were not for a couple of traditional-leaning selections, Maranatha Music’s Top 25 Gospel Songs – 2013 Edition could easily be titled Top 25 Praise and Worship Songs – 2013 Edition. Whether or not P&W is your cup of tea, there’s no denying that the amalgam of gospel and CCM has, along with smooth contemporary gospel, claimed a significant space on the gospel charts.  Top 25 Gospel Songs highlights this reality by combining praise-centric releases from established gospel stars with those of emerging indie artists.
