I was sent this via E-Mail and it struck me as true.

Sorry that we woke you

In the middle of the night

But someone in your neighborhood

is fighting fo his life.

Sorry if we blocked the road

And made you turn around

But there has been a bad wreck

with injured people on the ground.

When you see us coming

I hope you;ll understand

Let us have the right of way

Someone needs a helping hand.

Sometimes a child is choking

Sometimes a broken leg

Sometimes a heart stops beating

If we don't arrive it may be too late.

So if you see us crying

When we think we are alone

You'll know we had a bad one

And we're feeling mighty down.

We don't do it for the money

You know we don't get paid.

We don't do it for the glory.

But for the lifethat might be saved.

Somewhere deep with-in us

Our souls are crying out

We're here to help our neighbors

In their hour of pain and dought.

God gave us something special

To help us see you through

We do it cause we love you

And we care about you too!
