EMS Prayer

As I perform my duties, Lord
I will never question why,
Please help to guide and keep me safe,
My faith in you I rely.
I wish to serve and do my best
No matter what the task,
I Pledge to keep my skills refined
My judgment sure and fast..
If I have a chance to save a child
And return his youthful glee,
A word of thanks I may not hear
Self-pride is enough for me.
This calling I give unto myself
And most cannot comprehend,
But I stand ready with all my might
To help whenever I can.
The praise of many is fine for some
But I feel truly blessed,
That you, O Lord, have chosen me
To serve in the E.M.S.
