S.A. Ward: America, The Beautiful |
O beautiful for spacious skies, |
For amber waves of grain, |
For purple mountain majesties |
Above the fruited plain! |
America! |
America! |
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 stress |
A thoroughfare for 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 the country loved |
And mercy more than life! |
America! |
America! |
May God thy gold refine |
Till all success be nobleness |
And every gain divine! |
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! |
O beautiful for halcyon skies, |
For amber waves of grain, |
For purple mountain majesties |
Above the enameled plain! |
America! |
America! |
God shed his grace on thee |
Till souls wax fair as earth and air |
And music-hearted sea! |
O beautiful for pilgrims feet, |
Whose stern impassioned stress |
A thoroughfare for freedom beat |
Across the wilderness! |
America ! |
America ! |
God shed his grace on thee |
Till paths be wrought through |
wilds of thought |
By pilgrim foot and knee! |
O beautiful for glory-tale |
Of liberating strife |
When once and twice, |
for man’s avail |
Men lavished precious life ! |
America! |
America! |
God shed his grace on thee |
Till selfish gain no longer stain |
The banner of the free! |
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 |
Till nobler men keep once again |
Thy whiter jubilee! |
