VERSE 1
Life is like a winter highway
As through heavy snow it winds
Seven inches and it's icy,
Still you try to make good time.
Round the curves, across the bridges
Take the downhill nice and slow
Keep your hands upon the gearshift
And your eye upon the road
CHORUS
Blessed Saviour who created
Laws of physics to obey
May our car not meet a light pole
Coming toward us, Lord we pray
VERSE 2
As you head into the snowstorm
You may need to change your plans.
Know that people will forgive you
If you come late to the dance.
See the S.U.V.s who wound up
In the ditches as you pass
Keep your hands upon the gearshift
Lift your foot up off the gas.
CHORUS
Blessed Saviour look upon us
Laws of physics you did make
May we not remain in motion
When we're pressing on the brake.
VERSE 3
We cannot do all that we wish to
Sometimes nature is contrary
And its rules must be respected
This we learn in February.
And sometimes the flight is cancelled
On account of wind and snow,
One more reason to remember:
Take a book where'er you go.
CHORUS
Blessed Saviour who created
Laws of physics we obey
Help us to enjoy inertia
To sit down and spend the day.
Blessed Saviour who created
Laws of physics to obey
May our car not meet a light pole
Coming toward us, Lord we pray
Coming toward us, Lord we pray
