O beautiful for heroes proved
\nIn liberating strife,
\nWho more than self their country loved,
\nAnd mercy more than life!
\nAmerica! America!
\nMay God thy gold refine,
\nTill all success be nobleness,
\nAnd every gain divine.
\nO beautiful for patriot dream
\nThat sees beyond the years
\nThine alabaster cities gleam,
\nUndimmed by human tears!
\nAmerica! America!
\nGod mend thine every flaw,
\nConfirm thy soul in self control,
\nThy liberty in law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
