(Julie Gold)
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 and no disease
There's no hungry mouths to feed
From a distance
We are instruments marching in the common band
Playing songs of hope
Playing songs of peace
They're the songs of every man
If God is watching us, then 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 in the heart of every man
It's the hope of hopes
It's the love of loves
It's the song of every man
As sung by Ian Bruce
