Jesus Take The Wheel lyrics

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 back seat

Fifteen 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 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 so, 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 to the shoulder

And the car came to a stop

She cried when she saw that baby in the back seat

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 gotta change

But for 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

Oh, Jesus, take the wheel

I'm letting go

So give me one more change

To save me from this road I'm on

From this road I'm on

Jesus, take the wheel

Oh, take it from me

Oh...

Jesus, take the wheel
