First Responders

Over there in the trenches stands a medic and a nurse They have seen the bad and the worse, They have been kicked, punched and also cursed While help and comfort they have faithfully dispersed, They are the true answer to a prayer Whenever they are needed, they are there. Over there stands a brave firefighter For our safety and and salvation he'll pull an all-nighter, He fiercely battles the evil of fire Knowing the flames of destruction and death is it's desire, And whenever a fireman is called upon and/ or needed He is always there, unheeded. Whenever time is at the crucial must And our safety and health to others we must entrust, Whenever there is sickness, suffering and/ or blight These heroes are always the first ones at the site, God has gave and created us many great wonders But, I thank God for the first responders.
