Dare to be a Daniel
Standing by a purpose true,
Heeding God’s command,
Honour 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.
Many mighty men are lost
Daring not to stand
Who for God had been a host
By joining Daniel’s band.
Many giants great and tall,
Stalking through the land,
Headlong to the earth would fall
If met by Daniel’s band.
Hold the Temperance banner high!
On to vict’ry grand!
Satan and his host defy,
And shout for Daniel’s band.
Total abstainers club
Having previously been founded in the United States, the Order of the Sons of Temperance of Great Britain and Ireland was instituted in 1855. Thus for over a century and a half the Sons of Temperance, as a Friendly Society, has had an outstanding record of service in providing life insurance and savings schemes exclusively for total abstainers.
If you are a past or present member of the Sons of Temperance (or the Cadets of Temperance), or are a total abstainer, or share a concern over society's problems caused by alcohol we'd love to hear from you.
