The Firefighter's Prayer 
When I am called to duty, 
God whenever flames may rage, 
Give me the strength to save some life Whatever be its age. 
Help me to embrace a little child Before it is too late, 
Or some 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 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.
