Should I contact the employer and explain myself and just take it as it comes?

Bring it up now and you've already lied, your gone. They find it, you lied, your gone. The best you can hope for IMHO is that you keep your trap shut about it to everyone you know forever and you may get through this with a job. 10 years ago it may not come up. 10 years ago you most likely did not do time for it. Either way Good Luck.

I am not telling you to be dis-honest(kinda already covered that base) just no sense in digging a hole you have no chance of getting out of.

Heck, Doug Parker's a DUI'er and they let him run the company.
