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.
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.
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 can't comprehend
what all this war is for.
from a distance there is harmony,
and it echoes through the land.
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.
it´s the song of every man.
it´s the song of every man.
