1 Dare to be right! dare to be true!
You have a work that no other can do;
Do it so bravely, so kindly, so well,
Angels will hasten the story to tell.
Refrain:
Dare, dare, dare to do right!
Dare, dare, dare to be true!
Dare to do right, dare to be true!
Dare to do right, to be true!
2 Dare to be right! dare to be true!
Other men’s failures can never save you;
Stand by your conscience, your honor, your faith,
Stand like a hero, and battle till death. [Refrain]
3 Dare to be right! dare to be true!
God, who created you, cares for you, too;
Treasures the tears that His striving ones shed,
Counts and protects every hair of your head. [Refrain]
4 Dare to be right! dare to be true!
Keep the great judgment seat always in view;
Look at your work as you’ll look at it then—
Scanned by Jehovah, and angels, and men. [Refrain]
5 Dare to be right! dare to be true!
Jesus, your Savior, will carry you through;
City, and mansion, and throne all in sight,
Can you not dare to be true and do right? [Refrain]
