OT Fireman's Prayer

[Duce Lewis]

I saw this on a Funeral Bulletin for a Fireman

Touched my heart and I thought it worth sharing

 

Fireman's Prayer

When I'm called to duty, God

wherever flames my rage,

give me strength to save

some life whatever it's 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

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 your will

I have to lose my life,

please bless with your protecting hand

my children and my wife

AMEN

 

Brought back thoughts of 9/11

Lest we forget!

Indeed!... A dangerous job
