From a distance

the world looks blue and green

and the snow capped mountain's white

From a distance

the ocean meets the stream

and the eagle takes to flight

From a distance, there is harmony

and it echoes through the land

It's the voice of hope

it's the voice of peace

It's the voice of every man

From a distance, we all have enough

and no one is in need

and there are no guns

no bombs, and no disease

no hungry mouths to feed

From a distance, we are instruments

marching in a common band

playing songs of hope

playing songs of peace

they're the songs of every man

and God is watching us

God is watching us

God is watching us, from a distance

From a distance, you look like my friend

even though we are at war

From a distance I just cannot comprehend

what all this fighting is for

From a distance, there is harmony

and it echoes through the land

and it's the hope of hopes

It's the love of loves

It's the heart of every man

It's the hope of hopes

It's the love of loves

This is the song of every man

and God is watching us

God is watching us

God is watching us from a distance

Oh God is watching us, God is watching

God is watching us

from a distance
