America The Beautiful 0 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. 0 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.
