Story Behind the Song
This performance was recorded live at Brick by Brick in San Diego, California, USA during a taping of "The TJ Brinjak Show." Majestic Wonder dedicates this recording to NASA, the American spirit of exploration, and to Mae Jemison, the first African-American woman in space.
Lyrics
Oh beautiful, for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountains majesty,
Above the fruited plain;
America, America,
God shed His grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood,
From sea to shining sea.
