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 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
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's 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 (every man)
It's the hope of hopes It's the love of loves This is the song for 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
