"EMS Prayer"
As I preform my duty lord,
Whatever be the call,
Help to guide and keep me safe,
From dangers big or small.
I want to serve and do my best,
No matter what the scene,
I pledge to keep my skills refined,
My judgement quick and keen.
This calling to give of myself,
Most do not understand,
But I stand ready all the time,
To help my fellow man.
To have the chance to help a child,
restore his laugh with glee,
A word of thanks I might not hear,
But knowing is enough for me.
The praise of men is fine for some,
But I feel truly blessed,
Thank you, oh Lord have chosen me
To serve in E.M.S.
