232. Dare to be Brave, dare to be True

1 Dare to be brave, dare to be true,
Strive for the right, for the Lord is with you;
Fight with sin bravely, fight and be strong,
Christ is your Captain, fear only what’s wrong.

Chorus:
Fight then, good soldiers, fight and be brave,
Christ is your Captain, mighty to save.

2 Dare to be brave, dare to be true,
God is your Father, He watches o’er you;
He knows your trials; when your heart quails,
Call Him to rescue,--His grace never fails. [Chorus]

3 Dare to be brave, dare to be true,
God grant you courage to carry you through;
Try to help others, ever be kind,
Let the opprest a strong friend in you find. [Chorus]
