 POEMS & PRAYERS

 A Firemans's Prayer
 
When I am 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 fill my calling and
To give the best in me,
To guard my every neighbor
And protect their property.
And if, according to your will,
I have to lose my life,
Please bless, with your protecting hand,
My children and my wife.

	The Serenity Prayer
	God, grant me the serenity
	to accept the things I can not change,
	courage to change the things I can,
	and wisdon to know the difference
