Sinach Becomes First Female Christian Songwriter to Hold No. 1 Spot

Integrity Music is proud to announce that Nigerian Christian music songwriter and highly celebrated worship leader, Sinach is the industry’s top Christian songwriter. Holding the No. 1 spot for twelve weeks in a row, the news comes according to Billboard’s weekly charts that name the week’s top songwriters and producers.

The “Way Maker” song has been covered by a number of Christian music artists around the world including Michael W. Smith, Leeland, Christafari, and various artists in Bethel Music. It has been sung in churches around the world.

Sinach, whose full name is Osinachi Okoro, is the only woman to hold this No. 1 spot. She is the songwriter to over 200 songs, most recently the world-renowned worship anthem “Way Maker.”

The song “Way Maker” has also become an anthem over the past weeks during the COVID-19 pandemic. Numerous hospitals have been playing the song from their rooftops to the parking lots, taking a few moments to pray for those impacted by the virus as well as to honour those who are tirelessly working the front lines to battle this pandemic. And just this weekend, the song was sung by thousands who took to the streets in Minneapolis, MN during a protest march to honour the life of George Floyd and to fight against racism.
