I Set My Hope On Jesus
Matt Papa's modern hymn, "I Set My Hope On Jesus," was written with Keith Getty and Matt Boswell.
Lyrics:
Verse 1:
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:
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:
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
Verse 3:
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
