I had assumed the worst – v2

I had assumed the worst,

that it was too late for me,

but God gave me the best;

the answers to my prayers

peace, new rest

I assumed the worst

that the cost was mine to bear,

but God gave me grace

peace beyond understanding

The benefit covering

more than I imagined

the weight lifted from me;

God’s gift of grace

peace, new rest
