"When I'm called to duty, God,
Wherever flames may rage,
Give me the strength to save some 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 find my calling, and
To Give the best in me,
To guard 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."
