From a distance, the world looks blue and green And the snow-capped mountains white. From a distance, the ocean needs the stream And the eagle takes to flight. From a distance, there is harmony And it echos 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. 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 echos through the land And it's the hope of hopes, it's the love of loves It's the heart of every man. God is watching us God is watching us God is watching us From a distance Ohh, God is watching us God is watching us God is watching us From a distance
