Preamble

shall not actively seek any reward. They shall acknowledge all
thanks to an
organization of men and women of the highest caliber who offer

The
Firefighter's Prayer
When
I am called to duty, God,
wherever flames may rage,
Give me strength to save some life,
whatever be its age.
Help me embrace a little child, before it's 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 effectively 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 accoding to Your will, I have to lose my life,
Please bless with your protecting hand,
my children and my wife.
