Dare to Be a Daniel

Verse 1
Standing by a pur­pose true,
Heeding God’s com­mand,
Honor them, the faith­ful few!
All hail to Da­ni­el’s band! (Dan. 3:17-18)

Chorus
Dare to be a Da­ni­el,
Dare to stand alone! (Dan. 1:8, Dan. 6:10)
Dare to have a pur­pose firm!
Dare to make it known.

Verse 2
Many migh­ty men are lost
Daring not to stand, (Eph. 6:13)
Who for God had been a host
By join­ing Da­ni­el’s band.

Verse 3
Many gi­ants, great and tall,
Stalking through the land,
Headlong to the earth would fall, (I Sam. 17:49-50)
If met by Da­ni­el’s band.

Verse 4
Hold the Gos­pel ban­ner high! (Ps. 60:4)
On to vic­t’ry grand!
Satan and his hosts de­fy, (Eph. 6:11-12, Jam. 4:7, I Pet. 5:8-9)
And shout for Da­ni­el’s band.
