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 backseat
 50 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
 And 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
 And 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, whoa, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
