Why Do Good Men Die Young

The world has need of good men.
So why do they die so young?
Does God need them to fill a place up in heaven?
Or is he promoting them as in a song.

We shall have a crown-
And have golden slippers to wear.
In heaven, all is peace and joy,
No more burdens will we have to bear.
