America the Beautiful

Oh, 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

Oh, beautiful for heroes proved

In liberating strife

Who more than self, their country loved

And mercy more than life

America, America

God mend thine every flaw

Confirm thy soul in self-control

Thy liberty in law

If you'd like to join me, please do

Oh, 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 to shining sea
