America The Beautiful Lyrics by Steven Curtis Chapman & Chris Janson
I sat down today to try to write a song
About some troubling things that I see goin’ on
Seems everybody wants to talk about what’s wrong with America
So much is broken it’s like we don’t know where to start
While the algorithms try to keep us worlds apart
I’m just the grandson of a world war Purple Heart
Who fought for America
And I just wanna say
O beautiful for spacious skies for amber waves of grain
For purple mountain majesties above the fruited plains
America America God shed His grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood from sea to shining sea
And maybe we could see beyond these battle-lines that we have drawn
And realize we really all in this thing together
Yeah, we’re all in this together
I know we never will agree on everything
It’s like a song we’ve all got different parts to sing
And how well we listen is how loud freedom will ring in America
So let freedom ring… and let us sing
O beautiful for spacious skies for amber waves of grain
For purple mountain majesties above the fruited plains
America America God shed His grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood from sea to shining sea
From sea to shining sea
This is America the beautiful
America the beautiful
