The moment was custom made to order
I was ridin' with my daughter on our way back from Monroe
An' like children do, she started playin' twenty questions
But I never could've guessed one would touch me to my soul
She said, 'Daddy, when we get to Heaven
Can I taste the Milky Way?
Are we goin' there to visit
Or are we goin' there to stay?
Am I gonna see my Grandpa?
Can I have a pair of wings?
An' do you think that God could use another Angel
To help pour out the rain?'
Well, I won't lie
I pulled that car right over
An' I sat there on the shoulder tryin' to dry my misty eyes
An' I whispered, 'Lord, I wanna thank you for my children
'Cause your innocence that fills them
Often takes me by surprise'
Like, 'Daddy, when we get to Heaven
Can I taste the Milky Way?
Are we goin' there to visit
Or are we goin' there to stay?
Am I gonna see my Grandpa?
Can I have a pair of wings?
An' do you think that God could use another Angel
To help pour out the rain?'
Well, I thought about it later on
An' a smile came to my face
An' when I tucked her in to bed
I got down on my knees an' prayed
Lord, when I get to Heaven
Can I taste the Milky Way?
I don't wanna come to visit
'Cause I'm comin' home to stay
An' I can't wait to see my family
And meet Jesus face to face
An' do you think, Lord
You could use just one more Angel
To help pour out the rain?
