O beautiful, for spacious skies
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties,
Above the fruited plain!
God shed His grace on thee!
And crown thy good with brotherhood,
From sea to shining sea!
O beautiful, for pilgrim feet,
whose sterm impassioned stress,
A thoroughfare of freedom beat,
Across the wilderness!
America! America!
God mend thine every flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self-control,
Thy liberty in law!
O beautiful, for heroes proved,
In liberating strife,
Who more than self their country loved,
And mercy more than life!
America! America!
May God thy gold refine,
Til all success be nobleness,
And every gain devine!
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!
And a few more just for fun!
Old Faithful! |
