With the win­dow op­en wide,
And the foe so near,
Daniel bows be­fore his God,
Without doubt or fear.

Refrain

Brave Da­ni­el! brave Da­ni­el!
Ever good and true;
If, like him, to God we’re faith­ful,
He’ll bring us safe­ly through.

Hark! the voice of pray­er and praise,
Full of joy and peace;
King’s de­cree and lion’s den
Cannot make it cease!

Refrain

In the li­on’s den, be­hold,
Daniel sweet­ly sleeps;
While the guard­ian an­gel there,
Holy vi­gil keeps.

Refrain

God is watch­ing o’er His own,
With all-see­ing eye;
Vainly foes against them rage;
They but rage—and die.
