May God protect the Fireman where ever he may be,
From the mountains to the meadows, from the desert to the seas
May God be with them where they are as they fight the flames so bolds
Facing fire and falling timbers in the nights so bleak and colde
In the heat and sun of Summer with the days so very nicep
To the dangers of the Winter with the engine on the ice.
Facing the horror of death and danger to save a human life
While at home awaits his children and a fond and loving wifee
