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 would been a long
hard year
She had a lot on her mind
and she didn't pay
attention She was
going way to 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 sooo scared
She threw her
hands up in the air
Jesus take the wheel
Take it from my hands
Cause I can't do
this all 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 all my own
I'm letting go
So give me
one more chance
To save me from
this road I'm on
Oh, 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, why, oh
