Story Behind The Song
When I began this song I was going through a long dry spell with my song writing. As is my usual preparation to create a new song: I got down on my knees and quietly ask The Lord to give me words if He is ready for me to write a new song for him. The idea came to me that anything we want to accomplish, we need to pray and let Jesus take control of the situation.

When you're in trouble when you're in doubt
The Lord is waiting to help you out
give your problems to Him today
The Lord is waiting to show you the way
Chorus:
Let Jesus take control let Him take the wheel
He'll guide you safely over the hill
when you are down in the valley of sin
Open up your heart and let Him come in.
Just open up your heart and let Him come in.

When life seems dark, no light to see
Look up to Jesus from bended knee
Ask him into your heart today
He'll send a friend to show you the way
Chorus:
Let Jesus take control let Him take the wheel
He'll guide you safely over the hill
when you are down in the valley of sin
Open up your heart and let Him come in.
Just open up your heart and let Him come in.
When you are livin' in His heavenly light
He'll walk beside you both day and night
He will guide you along your way
You'll feel His kindness every day
Chorus:
Let Jesus take control let Him take the wheel
He'll guide you safely over the hill
Or when you are down in the valley of sin
Open up your heart and let Him come in.
Just open up your heart and let Him come in.
