A Fireman's Prayer

 

 "In Remembrance of W. J. Ferguson"

A fellow Firefighter and Friend ...

August 8th 1961 - March 31st, 1999

 

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.
