To the Firefighter
The Guardian Angels in our life
Are those who chose to serve
Those who sit there waiting
What’s around the next curve
Men and Women who have dedicated
Their very lives to us
Who face the dangers daily
To you our lives we trust
These wonderful selfless people
Will be there when we call
No matter what danger they face
They always give their all
The fire fighters needs come last
when that siren blows
He is running to protect us
For time is short he knows
They put their lives on the line
For strangers they never met
But the care and protection given
Is truly without regret!
I want to thank the fire fighters
For everything they do
You give us all great comfort
In the work that you pursue
From each fire that you fight
To each child that you save
To the vision of a crumbled car
To the comfort that you gave
We thank you for all you’ve done
For all that will come to be
We pray for each one’s safety
God provide each firefighters needs
Be with each one as they struggle
Through the pain they will face
Give them strength to carry on
Rain down on them your Grace.
For each of them are Angels
Sent to help us along the way
What precious dedication
That could never be repaid
