​Firefighter's Prayer

​When I am called to duty, God 
Wherever Flames may rage 
Give me the 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 
Fear 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 their property

And if according to your will 
I have to lose my life 
Please bless with your protecting hand 
My children and my wife (spouse)
