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 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 



[Repeat *]



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
