A fireman's Prayer
When I am called to duty, God,
whenever flames may rage;
Give me strength to save some
life, whatever be its age.
Help me embrace a little child
before it is too late
Or save an older person from
the horror of that fate.
Enable me to be alert and
bear the weakest shout,
And quickley and efficiently
to put the fire out.
I want to fill my calling and
to give the best in me.
To guard my neighbor and
protect his property.
And if, according to my fate,
I am to lose my life,
Please bless with your protecting
hands, my children and my wife.
