Peter WilhouskyBenedictionPostlude "Fanfare for the Common Man" by Copland/RadulescuMy Country, 'Tis of TheeMy country, 'tis of the, Sweet land of liberty, Of thee I sing: Land where my fathers died, Land of the Pilgrims' pride. From every mountainsideLet freedom ring!My native country, thee, Land of the noble, free, Thy name I love. I love thy rocks and rills, Thy woods and templed hills: My heart with rapture thrillsLike that aboveLet music swell the breeze, And ring from all the treesSweet freedom's song. Let mortal tongues awake; Let all that breathe partake; Let rocks their silence break, The sound prolong. Our father's God, to Thee, Author of liberty, To Thee we sing: Long may our land be brightWithe freedom's holy light; Protect us by Thy might, Great God, our King!America, the BeautifulO beautiful for spacious skies, For amber waves of grain, For purple mountain majestiesAbove the fruited plain! America! America! God shed His grace on thee, And crown thy good with brotherhood, From sea to shining sea. O beautiful for pilgrim feet, Whose stern, impassioned stressA thoroughfare for freedom beatAcross the wilderness! America! America! God mend thine every flaw, Confirm thy soul in self-control, Thy liberty in law. O beautiful for heroes provedIn liberating strife, Who more than self their country loved, And mercy more than life! America! America! May God thy gold refine, 'Til all success be nobleness, And every gain divine. O beautiful for patriot dreamThat sees beyond the yearsThine 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.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
