SONG LYRICS AND POETRY
From the fourth verse of "America the Beautiful"

By Katherine Lee Bates

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
