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.

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

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 vic­to­ry’s won.

Refrain
