She was driving last Friday on her way to Cincinnati |
|
On a snow white Christmas Eve |
|
Going home to see her Mama and her Daddy with the baby in the backseat |
|
Fifty miles to go and she was running low on faith and gasoline |
|
It'd been a long hard year |
|
She had a lot on her mind and she didn't pay attention |
|
she was going way too fast |
|
Before she knew it she was spinning on a thin black sheet of glass |
|
She saw both their lives flash before her eyes |
|
She didn't even have time to cry |
|
She was so scared |
|
She threw her hands up in the air |
|
Jesus take the wheel |
|
Take it from my hands |
|
Cause I can't do this on my own |
|
I'm letting go |
|
So give me one more chance |
|
To save me from this road I'm on |
|
Jesus take the wheel |
|
It was still getting colder when she made it to the shoulder |
|
And the car came to a stop |
|
She cried when she saw that baby in the backseat sleeping like a rock |
|
And for the first time in a long time |
|
She bowed her head to pray |
|
She said I'm sorry for the way |
|
I've been living my life |
|
I know I've got to change |
|
So from now on tonight |
|
Jesus take the wheel |
|
Take it from my hands |
|
Cause I can't do this on my own |
|
I'm letting go |
|
So give me one more chance |
|
To save me from this road I'm on |
|
Jesus take the wheel |
|
Oh I'm letting go |
|
So give me one more chance |
|
Save me from this road I'm on |
|
From this road I'm on |
|
Jesus take the wheel |
|
Oh take it take it from me |
|
Oh |
