Overview

o Beautiful For... God mend thine every flaw... Katherine Lee Bates wrote America the Beautiful in 1893, inspired by her first experience of the Rocky Mountains. But her words aren't just a song of praise. Bates was a reformer, and each verse of her famous song acknowledges-at least by implication-a flaw in our country that needs to be mended. How can we use what's beautiful about America to fix what's wrong? What do we aspire to? The O Beautiful For project was born in Philadelphia in 2016 with the idea that celebrating what's beautiful about America is necessary for fixing what's wrong, and that singing together promotes brotherhood and sisterhood from sea to shining sea. Now, ten years later, the project seems more urgent than ever. This volume is a songbook of new verses for America the Beautiful and an invitation to write your own. Come join the song! America needs your voices.
