When I am called to duty, God,
wherever flames may rage,
grant us the strength to save lives,
whatever be their age.
Help us embrace a little child,
before it is too late,
or save an older person,
from the horror of that fate.
Enable us to be alert,
and hear the weakest shout,
to quickly and efficiently,
put the fires out.
We want to fulfil our calling,
and be the best we can,
in guarding our every neighbour,
and protecting their property.
And if it be, while on the job,
I should lose my life,
please bless with your sustaining hand,
all those I’ve loved in life.
Amen. |
