Key of G.
- 1) Oh beautiful, for spacious skies,
- For amber waves of grain.
- For purple mountains, majesties, above the fruited plains.
- America! America! God shed His Grace on thee.
- And crown the good with brotherhood, from sea to shining sea.
- ****************
- 2) Oh beautiful, for pilgrim feet
- Whose stern impassioned stress.
- A thouroughfare for freedom beat, across the wilderness.
- America! America! God mend thine every flaw.
- Maintain thy soul in self control, thy liberty in law.
- ******************
- 3) Oh beautiful for heroes proved,
- In liberating strife.
- Who more themselves their country loved,
- And mercy more than life.
- America! America! May God they Gold refine.
- 'til all success be nobleness, and every grace devine.
- **********************
- 4) Oh beautiful for Patriot Dream
- That seen beyond thy years.
- Thine alabaster city gleam, undimmed by human tears.
- America! America! God shed his grace on thee.
- And crowned thy good with brotherhood,
- From sea to shining sea.
