The Good Die Young

It seems to often good people die at a young age.
    People who knew them are filled with sorrow and rage.
    We wonder how God could take them
    from us in their prime.
    Maybe God needs their help to
    watch over the world.

     God gives everyone a chance
     to earn their heavenly place.
     Those that die young have
     succeeded in earning their place.

      He makes them guardian angels
      to watch over us.
      Others he let’s live ‘til another day
      when they have grown old and gray.
      He gives them time to mend their ways,
      He gives them a chance to
      earn their way into grace.
