When I'm
called to duty,
wherever flames may rage,
give me 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
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 neighbor
and
protect his property.
And if according to God's will
I must answer death's call,
Bless with your
protecting hand,
my family, one and all.
AMEN.
