From a distance

From a distance - Kathy Mattea

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 the echo 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 diseases,

no hungry mouths to feed

From a distance, we are instruments,

matching in a common band,

playing songs of hope,

playing songs of peace,

there is the song of every man

God is watching us, God is watching us,

God is watching us, from a distance,

ohh God is watching us from a distance

From a distance, you look like my friend, even though we're at war

From a distance, I just cannot comprehend, what all this fighting is for?

It's the hope of ?, it's the love of all, it's the heart of every man

It's the hope of ?, it's the love of all, it is the song of every man

Oh God is watching us, God is watching us from a distance
