I Set My Hope (Hymn for a Deconstructing Friend)

[Verse 1: Matt Papa]
When this life of trials tests my faith
I set my hope on Jesus
When the questions come and doubts remain
I set my hope on Jesus
For the deepest wounds that time won’t heal
There’s a joy that runs still deeper
There’s a truth that’s more than all I feel
I set my hope on Jesus

[Chorus: Matt Papa & Kristyn Getty]
I set my hope on Jesus
My rock, my only trust
Who set His heart upon me first
I set my hope on Jesus

[Verse 2: Kristyn Getty with Matt Papa]
Though I falter in this war with sin
I set my hope on Jesus
When I fail the fight and sink within
I set my hope on Jesus
Though the shame would drown me in its sea
And I dread the waves of justice
I will cast my life on Calvary
I set my hope on Jesus

[Chorus: Matt Papa & Kristyn Getty]
I set my hope on Jesus
My rock, my only trust
Who set His heart upon me first
I set my hope on Jesus

[Verse 3: Matt Papa]
Though the world call me to leave my Lord
I set my hope on Jesus
Though it offer all its vain rewards
I set my hope on Jesus
Though this heart of mine is prone to stray
Give me grace enough to finish
’Till I worship on that final day
I set my hope on Jesus

[Chorus: Matt Papa & Kristyn Getty]
I set my hope on Jesus
My rock, my only trust
Who set His heart upon me first
I set my hope on Jesus
I set my hope on Jesus
My rock, my only trust
Who set His heart upon me first
I set my hope on Jesus
I set my hope on Jesus
