Just after Vice President Mike Pence took the vice presidential oath of 
office using the Reagan family Bible, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir
 performed this inspiring rendition of "America the Beautiful,"
accompanied by the United States Marine Band known as 
The President's Own.
Their performance came right before President Donald Trump took the presidential oath of office and delivered his inaugural address.
