Have Courage, my Boy, to Say No!

Verse 1

You’re starting, my boy, on life’s journey, Along the grand highway of life. You’ll meet with a thousand temptations, Each city with evil is rife. This world is a stage of excitement, There’s danger wherever you go; But if you are tempted to weakness, Have courage, my boy, to say No!

Chorus

Have courage, my boy, to say No, Have courage, my boy, to say No. Have courage, my boy, Have courage, my boy, Have courage, my boy, to say No.

Verse 2

In courage alone lies yours safety, When you the long journey begin. Your trust in a Heavenly Father Will keep you unspotted from sin. Temptations will go on increasing, As streams from a rivulet flow; But if you’d be true to your man-hood, Have courage, my boy, to say No!
