Jesus, Take the Wheel

Arista Nashville, under Sony. The prayer is specific. A car, a baby, a woman who is out of skill.

Arista Nashville released it. That imprint is Sony. The scene is ordinary and therefore useful: ice, a child, hands that are not enough. She does not narrate herself as the hero of the skid.

A house that only sings about being in control will not have a song for the night it is not. This is that song. Sing it before you need it.

A baby in the back seat is the reason she is afraid.
Piety

She prays with the details, not with a mood.
Courage
7/10

Fear, then a handing over. Not a spiral.
Truth

The danger is not stylized.
Stewardship
7/10
A song for the night a competent person hits the limit.

Live historicallyIf the week has a thing you cannot steer, name it, and do not dress the naming up.

Always on My Mind

Columbia, under Sony. Regret, specific. He was busy. She needed the words.

Columbia released Nelson's version. Sony owns Columbia. The record is not about a scandal. It is about the days he was preoccupied, and the sentence he saved for later, and the later that came too late.

This is one of the useful sad songs. It tells you what to do while the person is still in the house.
