Nine Fire Fighters Killed Charleston, S.C.

Nine Charleston firefighters were killed fighting a blaze at a furniture warehouse and this is in their honor.

The Firefighter’s Prayer:

When I am called to duty,

Whenever flames may rage,

Give me strength to save a 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

Put the fire out.

-

I want to fill my calling

To give the best in me

To guard my every neighbor,

protect his property.

-

And if according to Your will

I must answer death’s last call

Bless with Your protecting hand

My family one and all.
