Oh beautiful for spacious skies....on Armed Forces Day!

Description:

Whether it is the exhilaration a toddler feels when beating on a bevy of kitchen pots, or the way a familiar tune can soothe a crying infant, music is a powerful influence in every child?s life.

In addition to the joy it brings, music is also important to a child's development by strengthening the ability to concentrate, increasing coordination through movement, and encouraging language development through exposure to new words and patterns.

Step by Step:
Oh beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above thy fruited plain.

America! America! God shed his grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood,
From sea to shining sea.

Oh beautiful for pilgim feet,
Whose stern, impassioned stress,
A thoroughfare for freedom beat,
Across the wilderness.

America! America! God mend thy every flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self control,
Thy liberty in law.

Oh beautiful for patriot dreams,
That sees beyond the years;
Thine alabaster cities gleam,
Undimmed by human tears,

America! America! God hed his grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood,
From sea to shining sea.
