Author: Philip P. Bliss Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #579 (1990) Meter: 7.5.7.6 with refrain First Line: Standing by a purpose true Lyrics: 1 Standing by a purpose true,
heeding God's command,
honor them, the faithful few!
All hail to Daniel's band!
Refrain:
Dare to be a Daniel!
Dare to stand alone!
Dare to have a purpose firm!
Dare to make it known!
2 Many mighty men are lost,
daring not to stand,
who for God had been a host
by joining Daniel's band. [Refrain]
3 Many giants, great and tall,
stalking through the land,
headlong to the earth would fall,
if met by Daniel's band. [Refrain]
4 Hold the gospel banner high;
on to vict'ry grand;
Satan and his host defy,
and shout for Daniel's band. [Refrain]
