- 1Standing by a purpose true,Heeding God’s command,Honor them, the faithful few!All hail to Daniel’s Band!Dare to be a Daniel,Dare to stand alone!Dare to have a purpose firm!Dare to make it known!
- 2Many mighty men are lost,Daring not to stand,Who for God had been a host,By joining Daniel’s Band!Dare to be a Daniel,Dare to stand alone!Dare to have a purpose firm!Dare to make it known!
- 3Many giants, great and tall,Stalking thru the land,Headlong to the earth would fall,If met by Daniel’s Band!Dare to be a Daniel,Dare to stand alone!Dare to have a purpose firm!Dare to make it known!
- 4Hold the gospel banner high!On to vict’ry grand!Satan and His host defy,And shout for Daniel’s Band!Dare to be a Daniel,Dare to stand alone!Dare to have a purpose firm!Dare to make it known!
