GOD TAKES THE BEST EARLY God takes the best early And He's coming for you He can't bear to see What Life will put you through Others fail to show Him Due appreciation For offering to us His finest Creation I see as my duty To over-compensate The love that I show you Might alter your Fate On behalf of us all I beg His compassion If He lets you live long I will be your bastion © 2001 by Michael J.
