When I am called to duty, God whenever flames may rage; 
Give me strength to save some life, whatever be it's 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 me with your protecting of my children and my wife.
