Fireman’s Prayer

When I am called to duty, God

Wherever fires 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 hear the weakest shout;

To 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 my fate…

I am to lose my life,

Please bless with Your protecting Hand,

My children and my spouse.

Amen
