America the Beautiful

O beautiful for spacious skies
For amber waves of grains
For purple mountains majesties
Above thy fruited plain

America, America
God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea

O beautiful for heroes proved
In liberating strife
Who more than self their country loved
And mercy more than life

America,America
God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea

O beautiful for patriot dream
That sees beyond the years
Thine alabaster cities gleam
Undimmed by human tears

America, America
God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea

America!
