America, The Beautiful

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.

Lift high the cross, unfurl the flag;
May they forever stand
United in our hearts and hopes,
God and our native land.
America! America!
May God thy love increase,
Till wars are past and earth at last
May follow Christ in peace.

On this Independence Day,
remember all those who have fought
to protect our Freedom, many
who gave their lives to keep us FREE!
Especially those who have not yet
been brought home.
