COMPLETE
LYRICS:
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 their country loved, and mercy more than life.
America,
America, May God they 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.
