Happy Sunday
🎶O Beautiful For Spacious Skies🎶
1. 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!
2. O beautiful for pilgrim feet
Whose stern, impassioned stress
A thoroughfare of freedom beat
Across the wilderness!
America! America!
God mend thine every flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self-control,
Thy liberty in law!
3. O beautiful for heroes proved
In liberating strife,
Who more than self their country loved
And mercy more than life!
America! America!
May God thy gold refine
Till all success be nobleness
And every gain divine!
4. O beautiful for patriot dream
That sees beyond the years
Thine 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!
📖 Psalm 33:12 📖
Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD;
and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.
A Blessed Sunday to all.

Tom - You're right. There is another church steeple in the picture. It is the Brethren Church located along the farm loop.
GrannyM - A few people hike or bike the trails but not that many.

Oh, Lord. I pray for our nation.
Amen to everything in this post! This nation needs God's help for sure. We need to make our God the Lord Jesus Christ! Have a good Sunday.
What a beautiful photo!
I had no idea that this song had all the other verses!!!
One of my favorites that brings up good memories.
I remember as a child, washing and dryer dishes after dinner and we would sing. This one we loved to bellow out so loud my dad would tell us to not sing so loud. It made an impression that when I was 9, I painted a mountain scene with mountains of purple. I named my painting Purple Mountains Majesty. And I took first place. I still have the yellowed watercolor somewhere!
Such a beautiful photo!
Perfect song for this week.
Very beautiful photo,
a road that starts with white flowers!!
Have a beautiful week!!
...wow, that's a massive hydrangea!
Such a beautiful photograph.
Happy Sunday Wishes.
All the best Jan
I've only ever heard the first verse of that psalm.
Such a pretty bush in that picture. It reminds me of the huge snowball bushes my dad used to have in his yard.
That is such a great song...I did know it had more than one verse but could not have told you what they were.
Beautiful photo and a great song!
Have a great day and happy new week!
