EMT's Prayer

The EMT's Prayer Lord, grant me the wisdom so that I may treat those of your children that lay at my feet Let my hands be gentle, sure and swift to impart to them your sacred gift Let me see only a patient's need not their wealth, status, or creed Help me always to be my best during the most tragic test Grant me the insight to understand why patients of mine are going to die Let me remember that when they do they go to heaven with you Lord, if in the time of duty I should fall help your other medics to hold their heads tall For it was You who chose me to serve my community anonymous
