LYRICS

O beautiful for spacious skies, for amber waves of grain, for purple mountain majesties, above the fruited plain! America, America, may God shed his grace on thee, and crown thy good with brotherhood, from sea to shining sea!

O beautiful for pilgrim feet, whose stern, impassioned stressed a thoroughfare for freedom beat across the wilderness! America, America, may God mend her every flaw, and confirm her soul in self-control, her liberty in law!

O beautiful for heroes proved in liberating strife, who more than self their country loved mercy more than life! America, America, may God refine her gold, 'till all success is nobleness, and every gain divine!

O beautiful for patriot dream that sees beyond the years, the alabaster cities gleam undimmed by human tears! America, America, may God shed his grace on thee, and crown thy good with brotherhood from sea to shining sea!
