Salvation Lyrics

Verse One:
One day when I was a little down on my luck
I stood on the highway in the rain
And I sent up a prayer for a Heaven-bound truck
And like an angel a diesel it came
Verse Two:
The truck driver said he was a good Christian man
and he laid the salvation on thick
He held two plastic statues in the palm of his hand
and told me to just take my pick
Chorus:
He said I keep my face in the highway
That dashboard's a good place stand
I'd rather have Jesus watch where I'm going
'Cause He already knows where I've been
Verse Three:
Somewhere across Texas, we parted ways
But I kept his advice through the years
Whenever I'm driving I make sure it stays
Between the radio dial and the mirror
Chorus:
And I keep my face in the highway
That dashboard's a good place stand
I'd rather have Jesus watch where I'm going
'Cause He already knows where I've been
Bridge:
He knows where I've drifted, He knows where I've sinned
He's there to make sure I don't go there again
A guy like me needs all the help he can get
So as a gentle reminder I'm not perfect yet
Chorus:
And I keep my face in the highway
That dashboard's a good place stand
I'd rather have Jesus watch where I'm going
'Cause He already knows where I've been
I'd rather have Jesus watch where I'm going
'Cause He already knows where I've been
