What road are you driving along in your life right now? The expressway? A narrow thoroughfare? A little lonely alley, or along a congested road? Let Jesus take the wheel, and be the driver in your life.

He knows where you need to go; He has the directions for your life. Impatience on the road? Stuck at a traffic light? Fix your eyes on Him and soon you'll be moving again.

No gasoline? Top up your engine with gallons of love and litres of submission. Fuel it with passion, and you'll be up and running once again.

Jesus, be the driver of my life. At least when the road is long and I see no end to it, or when its bumpy and my butt keeps hitting against the seat, I know there's a destination and a beautiful end to it.

Along the way, I'll blast a wonderful tune on the car stereo. A melody that has full of praise for You, one that will sustain me all the way. One that speaks of Your promises and Your unceasing kindness. One that proclaims Your unfailing love.

Jesus take my wheel.

"Jesus Take The Wheel" by Carrie Underwood

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
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, oh
