The Firemen's Prayer

When I am called to duty, God, where're the flames 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 some older person from the horror of that fate.

Enable me to be alert, and hear the weakest shout

and quickly and effectively to 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 have to lose my life,

Please bless with Your protecting Hand my children and my wife.

Amen
