The Official Christian & Gospel Singles Chart is a record chart compiled weekly by the Official Charts Company on behalf of the music industry of the United Kingdom. The twenty-position chart tabulates the best-selling songs of the week in the genres of Christian and gospel music, based on digital download, streaming, CD, and LP sales, tracking songs by British performers and under twelve months old.
The chart was first official launched on 6 March 2026 in partnership with AStepFWD, and the first number one hit was "Kumbaya" by Jerub, which would go on to spend a cumulative ten weeks atop the chart. The chart is announced each Friday weekly on BBC Radio 1. The current leader on the chart is Elle Limebear's "Give Me Joy".
