| [00:18.44] |
Oh beautiful, for heroes proved, |
| [00:27.11] |
In liberating strife, |
| [00:36.45] |
Who more than self, our country loved, |
| [00:44.53] |
And mercy more than life, |
| [00:49.61] |
|
| [00:55.17] |
America, America, may God thy gold refine, |
| [01:09.52] |
Till all success be nobleness |
| [01:19.66] |
And every gain devined. |
| [01:24.89] |
|
| [01:25.59] |
And you know when I was in school, |
| [01:27.06] |
We used to sing it something like this, listen here: |
| [01:28.64] |
|
| [01:29.29] |
Oh beautiful, for spacious skies, |
| [01:40.22] |
For amber waves of grain, |
| [01:44.61] |
For purple mountain majesties, |
| [01:57.38] |
Above the fruited plain, |
| [02:01.62] |
|
| [02:03.20] |
But now wait a minute, I'm talking about |
| [02:06.25] |
America, sweet America, |
| [02:15.55] |
You know, God done shed his grace on thee, |
| [02:22.21] |
He crowned thy good, yes he did, in a brotherhood, |
| [02:32.01] |
From sea to shining sea. |
| [02:37.67] |
|
| [02:38.08] |
You know, I wish I had somebody to help me sing this |
| [02:41.08] |
(America, America, God shed his grace on thee) |
| [02:45.04] |
America, I love you America, you see, |
| [02:51.92] |
My God he done shed his grace on thee, |
| [02:57.52] |
And you oughta love him for it, |
| [02:58.76] |
Cause he, he, he, he, crowned thy good, |
| [03:03.22] |
He told me he would, with brotherhood, |
| [03:08.50] |
(From sea to shining sea). |
| [03:15.49] |
Oh Lord, oh Lord, I thank you Lord |
| [03:20.94] |
(Shining sea). |
| [03:26.07] |
|
| [03:26.75] |
