Chosen One
Gone from our sight but not from our heart
You will be missed so much, and this is tearing us apart
From the first day that you were born, you were the gleam in our eyes
We never thought you would go before us, but here we are saying goodbye
You were very special to us and to so many others
You loved your family, did well and never got into any trouble
We are going to miss that beautiful smile that would light up a room
This pain we feel inside because you are gone too soon
So rest on, my child, we will try to live on without you
I know my God in Heaven doesn't make mistakes, and that's why he chose you.
