Dare to do right! dare to be true!

Cannot Omnipotence carry you through?

City, and mansion, and throne all in sight—

Can you not dare to be true and do right?

Dare to do right! dare to be true!

Prayerfully, lovingly, firmly pursue

The path by apostles and martyrs once trod,

The path of the just to the city of God.

—George Lansing Taylor.
