From a distance,
the world looks blue and green,
And the snow-capped mountains white.
From a distance,
the ocean meets 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.
There are no guns,
no bombs, 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.

Chorus:
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 can't comprehend,
What all this fighting is for.
From a distance,
there is harmony,
And it echoes through the land.
It's the hope of hope,
it's the love of love,
It's the song of every man.
