BMI songwriters and artists led the way at the 9th Annual Christian Country Music Awards, held at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville (11/6). Song of the Year accolades went to Doug Johnson for writing (with Kim Williams) "Three Wooden Crosses," a #1 hit for Randy Travis. "Three Wooden Crosses" was also named Song of the Year at the CMA Awards the previous night and at NSAI's annual Songwriter Achievement ceremony earlier in the week.
