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 they 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 ev’ry flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self-control
Thy liberty in law.

O beautiful for glorious tale of liberating strife,
When valiantly for man’s avail, Men lavished precious life.

America; America! May God thy gold refine,
Till all success be nobleness
And ev’ry 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 they good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!
