Song lyrics
She was driving last Friday on her way to Cincinnati 
On a snow white Christmas Eve 
Goin' home to see her mama & 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 

[Chorus:] 
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 
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"

[Chorus:] 
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 

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

First of all I'm not a Christian so I take a different perspective to the song. Very emotional like telling of a girl who now seeks faith on her journey all these flashbacks reminds her of the way...

I love the first line to the chorus...i mean the way her vocals do. Obviously the whole song was brilliant. Number 1 quality song

this song is amazing. I was Carrie all the way on AI (American Idol) And love what she has done. Her and Bo Bice totally deserve getting as far as they did. This is my absolute favorite song along with Bo's "The Real Thing" and Rascal Flatt's "Skin". Hope you've heard those, too!

I agree with Charizard. I think it's really great when Christian Secular artists are brave enough to put out a song that clearly states their faith. It takes alot of curage, and I really respect Carrie for that. I love this song! It really touches my heart, and encourages me to allow God to take control of my life.
