----------
A Fire Fighter'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 to save an older person from
The 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 neighbour and
Protect his property.

And if according to your will,
it is time to end my life,
Please bless with your protecting hand
My children and my spouse.
