America the Beautiful
Happiness is as a butterfly,
which, when pursued, is always
just beyond your grasp, but which,
if you will sit down
quietly, may alight upon you. ---Nathaniel
Hawthorne
(Tender Moments)

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
impassion'd 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 prov'd
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 be 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.
