All That Is Within Me, the band's fifth studio album, was released in 2007. It sold over 84,000 copies in its first week, debuting at No. 15 on the Billboard 200 and at No. 1 on the Christian Albums chart.,[11] and was certified Gold by the RIAA in 2010.[5] Their sixth studio album, The Generous Mr. Lovewell, was released in 2010 and sold 88,000 copies in its first week. It became their first top 10 album on the Billboard 200, debuting at No. 3.[12] All three of its singles peaked at No. 1 on the Christian Songs chart,[13] and the album has been certified Gold by the RIAA.[5] MercyMe's seventh studio album, The Hurt & The Healer, sold 33,000 copies in its first week, debuting at No. 7 on the Billboard 200.[14] Their 2014 studio album, Welcome to the New, debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 chart, selling 26,000 copies in its first week.[15]
