America the Beautiful - Ray Charles

[@jeancasola9340]

America is not lost yet.......keep fighting for it. A new and better day is coming. 2024

[@patriciaferguson5709]

How does this song not make you realize how good America is. I think our gov't is tearing us apart. Just don't give up

[@southernokie9483]

I agree completely

[@kristianfuria7319]

We will never give up.

[@nunyabusiness3657]

From sea to shining sea, America is number one. Coming from Mexico.

Sadly, I agree. There are tough times ahead but what something drastic needs to change to get America back.

Ray Charles kicked some serious ass with this! Best I ever heard! 🇺🇸

[@darlenebattle2713]

Ray Charles' placed his whole heart into this version. When he says at the end, "I thank You Lord..." it puts a tear in my eye. He sounded like he was grateful to be in this country. Wonderfully put.

Happy Memorial Day 2022 - there's no better way to remember how wonderful our country is than ways like this, an American man singing a song about America, watching our flag wave in the wind. She is worth every defense and every protection, every grace and every peace. God bless America, God bless the men and women who serve our country, and God bless the people that have lost their lives in the service to our country either while in service or as a result of it. God bless and keep us all.

Ray Charles Oh beautiful, for heroes proved In liberating strife Who more than self, our country loved And mercy more than life America, America, may God thy gold refine Till all success be nobleness And every gain devined And you know when I was in school We used to sing it something like this, listen here Oh beautiful, for spacious skies For amber waves of grain For purple mountain majesties Above the fruited plain But now wait a minute, I'm talking about America, sweet America You know, God done shed his grace on thee He crowned thy good, yes he did, in a brotherhood From sea to shining sea You know, I wish I had somebody to help me sing this (America, America) America, I love you America You see, my God he done shed his grace on thee (God shed his grace on thee) And you oughta love him for it Cause he, he, he, he, crowned thy good He told me he would, with brotherhood From sea to shining sea (From sea to shining sea) Oh Lord, oh Lord, I thank you Lord (Shining sea)

[@marklander5141]

Best part of the movie.

[@jacoboslonian4348]

There was only one night game a year. The whole sky would brighten up with fireworks, giving us just enough light for a game. We played our best then because, I guess, we all felt like the big leaguers under the lights of some great stadium. Benny felt like that all the time. We all knew he was gonna go on to bigger and better games, because every time we stopped to watch the sky on those nights like regular kids, he was there to call us back. You see, for us, baseball was a game. But for Benjamin Franklin Rodriguez, baseball was life.
