Beautiful Song

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 would 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 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
Jesus take the wheel
Take it from my hands
Cause I can't do this all 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...
--Carrie Underwood, "Jesus, Take the Wheel"

I get chillbumps every time I hear this song...I've never been a big Carrie Underwood fan, but I love this song...
I've gotten addicted lately to watching [the last 3 episodes of] Pride and Prejudice- the one produced in 1995, with Colin Firth as Darcy...he's never been a favorite actor of mine, but I love him in that movie. I want to go see the new version that's in theaters now, but I know it's gonna be alot different- you know how Hollywood likes to put their own spin on things and all. :) Speaking of movies, I really really want to see Walk the Line, the movie about Johnny Cash...
Everwood was great last night...lately it's become the only show on TV I watch every week, without fail. I've given up One Tree Hill and Related, because I got tired of listening to the language and seeing one sex scene after another...it was easier to give them up than I thought it would be...
It's Friday- yah! And next week is Thanksgiving! It'll be Christmas before we know it...
