| 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 |
