Fireman's Prayer

When I am called to duty, God

Wherever flames may rage

Give me the strength to save some life

Whatever be the age

Help me embrace a little child

Before it is too late

Or save an older person

From he horror of that fate

Enable me to be alert

And hear the weakest shout

And quickly and efficiently

To put the fire out

I want to fill my calling

And to give the best in me

To guard my every neighbor

And protect his property

And if according to my fate

I am to lose my life

Please bless with your protecting hand

The special people in my life.
