Story Behind The Song

I was stuck in traffic while late for work and became totally frustrated that I couldn't move. I kept hearing about the accident ahead and how bad traffic was. I hated doing this day in and day out so I started thinking about my life and if this is what

Song Description

Stuck in traffic wondering where your life is headed and if this is all there is

Lyrics

Driving down I-66, it's bout six forty five,
Traffic lady say's it's backed up for at least a dozen miles
Quickly goin nowhere, hurry up and wait
Got a big important meeting, I'll be fired if I am late

Trapped inside this jungle, with no way really out
In my mind I've lived a thousand dreams, that all now seem in doubt
Who can help me rearrange this crazy mixed up life,
Help me find some peace and joy, love my children and my wife

I turned the station on the radio and I heard a preaches say
Are you busy goin nowhere, on life's big highway?
Do you want to start all over? Have a peace that never ends?
Then Jesus is the answer for the heart that never mends.

I had to laugh right then and there, cause I'd heard it all before.
How Jesus chose those twelve men, as he walked along the shore.
I was just a little boy, believed everything I heard.
Now I'm older and I'm wiser I don't buy into every word

I turned the station on the radio and I heard a preaches say
Are you busy goin nowhere, on life's big highway?
Do you want to start all over? Have a peace that never ends?
Then Jesus is the answer for the heart that never mends

Feelin kinda desperate I prayed quietly in my mind,
God if you're still out there, give me some sorta sign
Then the traffic started moving, barely at a snails pace
As the big truck in front of me pulled away,
I saw "Jesus Saves", on the tailgate.
