Fireman's Prayer

When I am called to duty, God,
Whenever 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 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 fill my calling
And to give the best in me
To guard my every neighbor
And protect his property.

And if, according to my fate,
I am to lose my life,
Please bless with your protecting
My children and my wife.

This morning Gracie was throwing a tantrum in her room and decided to empty out her drawers of clothes and dump out her dirty laundry basket as well. I told her she needed to clean it up but I guess she got tired and fell asleep in the middle of it all.
