Lyrics
Beautiful America
Original Lyrics by Katharine Lee Bates
Music and Bridge by Clay
O beautiful for spacious skies
For amber waves of grain
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain
Chorus
America, America
God shed His grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea
O beautiful for heroes proved
In liberating strife
Who more than self their country loved
And mercy more than life
Chorus
Bridge
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful America
You?re beautiful
O beautiful for patriot dream
That sees beyond the years
Thine alabaster cities gleam
Undimmed by human tears
Chorus
Bridge
