FALLEN FIREFIGHTERS

FIREFIGHTER'S PRAYER

When I'm called to duty God wherever flames may rage
Give me the strength to save a 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 to hear the weakest shout
And quickly and efficiently put the fire out.

I want to fill my calling and give the best in me
To guard my every neighbor and protect his property.

And, if according to your will, I am to lose my life
Bless with your protecting hand my children and my wife.
