Dare to Do Right (Starkey)

lyricist: Elizabeth Starkey, 1885
Composer: George Eidt

If fiery temp­ta­tions en­com­pass thy soul

And high dash­ing pas­sion waves over thee roll

Be strong in the Lord

In the strength of His might

Gird on the whole ar­mor

and dare to do right.

Dare to do right

yes

dare to do right

Gird on the whole ar­mor

and dare to do right.

If dark­ness o’er­take thee and dan­gers ap­pall

Remember thine ar­mor is proof against all

And strong sup­pli­ca­tion

Will ban­ish the night

Then gird on the ar­mor and dare to do right.

The Word is the sword which the Spir­it doth wield

Salvation and faith are its hel­met and shield;

The breast­plate of right­eous­ness

Prayer will keep bright

Gird on the whole ar­mor and dare to do right.
