Lyrics

Dare to live for Jesus!
Dare to bravely stand,
Ready when He calls you,
Waiting His command.

Refrain

Dare to show your colors!
Dare to own your king!
Dare to be a Christian!
Dare to serve and sing!

Dare to speak for Jesus!
Dare to show the way
From this land of shadows
To the land of day.

Refrain

Dare to work for Jesus!
He has work for you,
Something for His service,
Something you can do.

Refrain
