Carrie Underwood – Jesus take the wheel

Carrie Underwood – Jesus take the wheel

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 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 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 / 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, ooh
