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! |
