Samuel A. Ward - America, the Beautiful - текст песни (слова)

1. 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.
 
 2. 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.
 
 3. O beautiful for glorious tale 
 Of liberating strife, 
 When valiantly for man's avail 
 Men lavish precious life. 
 America! America! 
 May God thy gold refine 
 Till all success be nobleness 
 And ev'ry man divine.
 
 4. O beautiful for patriot's 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.
