From A Distance |
by Julie Gold |
From a distance, the world looks blue and green |
and the snowcapped 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 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. |
And 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. |
