TRANSCRIPT
“Take time to be holy.Be calm in thy soul.
Each thought and each motive,beneath His control.
Thus led by His Spirit,to fountains of love.
Thou soon shall be fittedfor service above.
Somebody is going tocontrol your life.
17 But God be thanked that though you were slaves of sin, yet you obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine to which you were delivered.
18 And having been set free from sin, you became slaves of righteousness.
Romans 6:17-18
She was driving last Friday on her way to Cincinnati
on a snow white Christmas Eve.Going home to see her Mama
and her Daddywith 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 shoulderand 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 changeso 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.
