Representative Text

1 Dare to be brave, Dare to be true;
Strive for the right, for the Lord is with you.
Work against sin and work against wrong'
Christ is your leader, have courage, be strong.

2 Dare to be brave, Dare to be true;
God is your Father, he watches o’er you.
He knows your needs when e'er you are weak,
Ask him to help you and his guidance seek.

3 Dare to be brave, Dare to be true;
God grant you courage to carry you through.
Try to help others in all you do,
Trust in your leader, he'll carry you through.
