What has God planned,
For those Oklahoma souls,
Whose lives were taken,
Just a few years ago.

None of them forgotten,
And all of them loved,
Were retrieved for a mission,
from the Lord above.

What was the mission?
we'd really like to know,
Cause God understands,
We didn't want them to go.

We think of them all often,
And we try not to cry,
As we look up to Heaven,
And we still ask, "Why?".

A father, a brother,
In Gods' powerful hand,
A sister, a mother,
Please help us to understand.

Was it his intent,
To destroy all those lives,
As he took away,
The husbands and wives?

What of the children,
Why did they go?
Has everything really gotten,
So out of control?

All of them Angels,
With their names in the book,
Each of them happy,
When Jesus' hand they took.
