America The Beautiful Lyrics - Children

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 thy 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 heroes proved 

In liberating strife, 

Who more than self their country loved, 

And mercy more than life! 

America! America! 

May God thy gold refine 

Till all success 

In 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 thy good 

With brotherhood 

From sea to shining sea!
