God Has a Plan for Us All is the first full-length album by Angtoria, released on 8 May 2006.

It was received well by the international media and the special edition of the album sold-out soon after its release date (it was limited to 3,000 copies worldwide).

The band recorded a video for the title track.

Lyrical themes deal mostly with child abuse, self-harm and abuse in general. The lyrics for the album are very personal.

According to Sarah Jezebel Deva, "the title refers to that despite what happens, religious people always back themselves up with: 'God has a plan for us all' and 'It is as He wills it.' "
