EMS Prayer

Well next week I will begin my EMT training.  I am officially a member of our local ambulance service.  I hope to start taking shifts pretty soon.  I am very excited to begin this next chapter in my life.  This is something I have thought of doing again for many years.  Now that things have settled down in our family I am taking that step. 

EMS Prayer

As I perform my duties Lord
Whatever be the call.

Help to guide and keep me safe
From danger big and small.

I want to serve and do my best,
No matter what the scene.

I pledge to keep my skills refined,
My judgment 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 may not hear,
But knowing is enough for me.

The praise of men is fine for some
But I feel truly blessed,
That you, Oh Lord have chosen me
To serve in EMS
