Hope Set High

The song's rhythmic groove was created using a Korg Wavestation, a popular instrument in the music industry at the time.

During the 1980s, Amy Grant achieved enormous success in the contemporary Christian music industry, becoming that genre's best-selling artist.

With the dawn of the 1990s, however, Grant returned to the mainstream with a tour de force of chart-topping pop hits that became some of the most successful of the new decade.

The first single from her bubblegum pop album, Heart in Motion, became her first #1 song as a solo artist on The Billboard Hot 100.

Instead, Word opted to introduce the album to the Christian market with "Hope Set High", a less glitzy song with explicitly Christian-themed lyrics and references to Jesus.
