INTRODUCTION "God of Our Fathers" "My Country, 'Tis of Thee" "America, the Beautiful ENDING
Land where my fathers died,
Land of the pilgrims pride,
From ev'ry mountain side
Let freedom ring
Text: Daniel C. Roberts
Music: George W. Warren
God of our fathers,
Whose almighty hand,
Leads forth in beauty
All the starry band.
Of shining worlds,
In splendor through the skies,
Our grateful songs
Before Thy throne arise.
Text: Samuel F. Smith
Music: Thesaurus Musicus, c. 1745
Our fathers' God, to Thee,
Author of liberty,
To Thee we sing:
Long may our land be bright
With freedom's holy light,
Protect us by thy might,
Great God our King!
Text: Katharine Lee Bates
Music: Samuel A. Ward
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!
And, glory laud,
And praise be ever Thine!
