The lyrics trace a shift from desperation to a realization that finding God is better than any earthly treasure.

I got two days to get to Tulsa
It's a long way from southern Oregon
High stakes, I'm pushing my luck
Do or die, swim or sink
Ripe age, playin' to no one
Dry tank, surfin' a sofa
Cryin' baby making me grow up
He don't care about my dreams
Been reaching out for treasures that I thought
Were your promises but guessin' they were not
All the stars are fading fast
Thought my heart was made to last
God, I need a sign, 'cause I'm just trying to hold on
Am I lost or am I found?
Is this hell or holy ground?
God, I'm out of Hope, and I need You to show up
And send Heaven to Oklahoma
Send Heaven to Oklahoma
There's no quit when you're a fighter
Just true grit, I'm a survivor
I've been baptized down in the fire
I was born to take the heat
Well, if you want my attention, Lord, You got it
'Cause who can't help but listen from the bottom?
All the stars are fading fast
Thought my heart was made to last
God, I need a sign, 'cause I'm just trying to hold on
Am I lost or am I found?
Is this hell or holy ground?
God, I'm out of Hope, and I need You to show up
And send Heaven to Oklahoma
Send Heaven to Oklahoma
You got my attention
No better time for me to see the truth
You got my attention
Your guiding light is gonna lead me through
I was reaching out for treasure
But finding You is so much better
All the stars were fading fast
I was raising up my flag
But You're the proof to go ahead and get my hopes up
I was lost, but now I'm found
Hell turned into holy ground
On a blessed narrow road, God, You showed up
Somewhere out in Oklahoma
(You got my attention)
Somewhere out in Oklahoma
Somewhere out in Oklahoma (You got my attention)
Somewhere out in Oklahoma
