	Lyrics and Music
		The lyrics to this beautiful song were written by Katharine Lee Bates (1859-1929) an instructor at Wellesley College, Massachusetts, after an inspiring trip to the top of Pikes Peak, Colorado, in 1893.
		Her poem, America the Beautiful first appeared in print in The Congregationalist, a weekly journal, on July 4, 1895.
		For example, in 1926 the National Federation of Music Clubs held a contest to put the poem to new, reportedly "less somber," music, but no other entry was determined to be more acceptable.

	America the Beautiful - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		"America the Beautiful" is an American patriotic song which rivals "The Star-Spangled Banner", the national anthem of the United States, in popularity.
		It is often found in Christian hymnals in a wide variety of churches in the United States, and may be sung as part of a Christian service of worship to God.
		Proponents prefer "America the Beautiful" for various reasons, saying it is easier to sing, more melodic, and more adaptable to new orchestrations while still remaining as easily recognizable as "The Star-Spangled Banner." Some prefer "America the Beautiful" over "The Star-Spangled Banner" due to the latter's war-oriented imagery.

	America The Beautiful Nita (Lafond) Johnson
		America has forsaken the call to the "Fatherhood of the Nations." We were blessed to be a Father to the nations for their good and to ours.
		America is a people from every nation under the sun, therefore, the American Church must be represented by all her people.
		America’s beauty rests in her cathedrals, barns, warehouses, and anything else that is filled with the Glory of our Maker.

	America the Beautiful
		America is not threatened by any external forces or fanatical groups, but by lying, cheating, stealing, killing, hypocritical, arrogant Americans whose enormous wealth is only exceeded by their insatiable greed and their indifference to the plight of the people.
		Were America a democracy, the leaders would be engaging the citizens in the issues of the air we breath and the climate that engulfs us instead of trying to hide and distort the facts for fear of diminishing corporate profits.
		The rulers of America deny (surprise!) that the radioactive residue of these atomic weapons are the cause of the symptoms that are typical of radioactive exposure.

		The song "America the Beautiful" gets a striking treatment from illustrator Gall, who opens with an introduction to the words, which were written as a poem in 1893 by 24-year-old Bates.
		What is even more beautiful is that Chris Gall shares in the preface how a framed copy of Katharine Lee Bates' verse, written in her own hand, inspired him so much as an artist as he was growing up.
		Because "America the Beautiful" is not just a book which is great for artists or children or to grace the coffee table (although that is where MINE is going!), it is a work of art - which magnificently stirs the patriot within us all...

		It is a widespread and largely decorative habit of U.S. mayors to issue all sorts of proclamations, celebrating a great welter of groups, themes and causes of the day.
		The approach, made variously by letter, phone call or personal visit from a Chinese official based at China's Washington embassy or one of its numerous consulates, tends to combine gross disinformation with scare tactics and, in some cases, slyly implied diplomatic and commercial pressure.
