28. Dare to Be True

1 Dare to be true if the tempter assail,
Firmness of purpose o’er sin shall prevail;
Trust in the Lord and thy strength shall not fail,
Dare to be firm and true.

Refrain:
Dare, O dare to be true,
Mighty tho’ Satan’s art,
Trust in the Lord,
He will strengthen thy heart,
Dare to be firm and true.

2 Dare to be true tho’ thou standest alone,
Dare to be true till the vict’ry is won;
Till from thy side the dark tempter has flown,
Dare to be firm and true. [Refrain]

3 Dare to be true for the Saviour has said
“I will be with thee—O be not afraid,”
Trusting in Him thou canst not be dismay’d,
Dare to be firm and true. [Refrain]
