America the Beautiful

Whitney Houston · Star Spangled Banner [1991]

Oh 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



Oh beautiful for patriot dreams that seize beyond thy years,

thine alabastor 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!
