183 psl. - Dare to be a Daniel ! Dare to stand alone ! Dare to have a purpose firm ! Dare to make it known!
185 psl. - At the cross, at the cross where I first saw the light, and the burden of my heart rolled away, (rolled a-way,) it was there by faith I received my sight, and now I am happy all the day!
