Jesus, Take The Wheel ~ Carrie Underwood

A good song to have in the car... 
... and in your life as well.

~~~
Here's the Chorus (scroll down for full lyrics after the Video & Info sections)...

Jesus, take the wheel 
Take it from my hand
Coz I can't do this on my own, 
I'm letting go, 
Give me one more chance
Save me from this road I'm on.
Jesus, take the wheel.

Here're the Lyrics:

Jesus, Take The Wheel ~ Carrie Underwood (Lyrics)
(song written by Brett James, Hillary Lindsey and Gordie Sampson)

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 sooo scared
She threw her hands up in the air

Jesus take the wheel
Take it from my hands
Coz I can't do this on my own
I'm letting go
give me one more chance
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
Save me from this road I'm on

Ooh, Jesus take the wheel
Ooh, 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
Ooh, take it, take it from me
Ooh ooh wah ah ooh ooh ooh
