When I am called to duty, God

Whenever 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 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 hand

My children and my wife.
