Representative Text

1 There’s a conflict raging, all the world engaging,
’Tis the age long battle twixt the right and wrong;
And like faithful Daniel, thru the great Emmanuel,
We may win by being firm and true and strong.

Refrain:
Dare to be a Daniel true and holy,
In the daily conflict with blighting sin;
When your heart is tried and tempted sorely,
Dare to be a Daniel, and you will win.

2 Not in one day’s fighting, all our strength uniting,
Can we gain the great and final victory;
We need constant choosing, all our courage using,
Trusting wholly in the cross of Calvary. [Refrain]

3 Courage, then, my brother, helping one another,
We must press the battle ever on and on;
We must stand like Daniel, firm and strong like Daniel,
Till the foe’s defeated and the victry’s won. [Refrain]
