Red Sovine – Truck Driver's Prayer

Daewoo??? Stemmet Aspen??? 👀Breaks

And the E toll gemors comes down we can all get along, I know some scrap metal recyclers too

My uncle has been a truck driver since he was 18. So for 31 years he drove big trucks. Last year on April 12 he passed away from a heart attack. I miss him. I hope all yall truckers are safe out on the road

I've been a truck driver for 30 plus years just made a recent career change for health reasons but now that I drive a four wheeler I was thinking about it for my truck and just be safe it's in my blood and it won't stay in my blood but so far so good today the career change is working

I have drove for over 12 years and this is my favorite. It hits he heart and im about to go back this time i want be coming off the road again. Have no reason to any more

Unfortunately this has been slowed down a bit. It's not the correct speed.

got something kinda special I'd like to say to all you truck drivers out there who might be listening right now
Also a truck drivers prayer I'd like to pass along to you 
Cuz I think it's kind of special too

But first, Now I gotta few things I've been wanting to say to you guys for a long time
And I think right now is a good time to do it

Like did you know that me and just about everyone in country music who travel a lot
Have nothing but the highest respect for you the truck driver
Cuz its a fact that some of the best drivers are truck drivers
And the most safety mindedl, the most courteous and the first to stop and help when there's trouble

And little things like blinking signals lights to help someone pass
So you just gotta be good people
Like some I've had the pleasure of meeting
Down to earth, hard-working family men

And a lot of you like our country music and that makes you okay in my book
Sounds like Im blowing smoke, don't it
But I'm not
Cuz it boils down to this,

If everyone would drive liek you guys do
There would be a lot less accidents and deaths on the highway
So truck driver, buddy, you are appreciated more then you'll ever know
And we salute you, now for the prayer

Now this truck drivers prayer was sent to me, by a truck driver from Oklahoma City
He found it in a truck stop, Mary's Cafe in Cahokia, Il

Now this prayer means a lot to him
And I think it will you too, so if you will give a listen
And see if it isn't your prayer too

Dear God above bless this truck I drive
and help me keep someone alive
Be my mortal sight this day
on the street where little children play

Bless my helper fast asleep when the night is long
and keep my cargo safe and sound
through the hours big and round

Make my judgment sound as steel
and be my hands upon the wheel

Bless the traveler going past
and teach them not to go so fast

Give me strength for every trip
so I may care for what they ship

And make me mindful every mile
that life is just a little while….Amen

Amen

My grandfather was a truck driver from Oklahoma city and he was a hero many times he would stop and help ppl on side of road and at least three time saved families without a thought of himself one time he pulled a family out of a freezing river and we still have a newspaper clipping of it

wish i could have said it to my dad as i was growing up he is retired now from driving i wish i could have said when i was younger dad i am so proud of him not only because he was my dad but because he did cross country driving to make a life for me and my family being away from his family for weeks just to put food on the table and make sure we had what we needed i didnt realize it back then i was only 8 years old but i am a grown woman now at 28 and i have a son of my own and i can only hope one day my son will be as proud of me as i am of my father and my mom
