[00:16.24]From a distance the world looks blue and green,
[00:23.36]and the snow-capped mountains white.
[00:30.79]From a distance the ocean meets the stream,
[00:37.90]and the eagle takes to flight.
[00:44.57]From a distance, there is harmony,
[00:52.00]and it echoes through the land.
[00:59.55]It's the voice of hope, it's the voice of peace,
[01:06.67]it's the voice of every man.
[01:17.77]From a distance we all have enough,
[01:24.14]and no one is in need.
[01:32.44]And there are no guns, no bombs, and no disease,
[01:40.86]no hungry mouths to feed.
[01:46.65]From a distance we are instruments
[01:53.92]marching in a common band.
[02:01.09]Playing songs of hope, playing songs of peace.
[02:08.58]They're the songs of every man.
[02:15.82]God is watching us. God is watching us.
[02:22.80]God is watching us from a distance.
[02:46.33]From a distance you look like my friend,
[02:53.38]even though we are at war.
[03:00.75]From a distance I just cannot comprehend
[03:08.80]what all this fighting is for.
[03:14.66]From a distance there is harmony,
[03:22.02]and it echoes through the land.
[03:29.33]And it's the hope of hopes, it's the love of loves,
[03:37.00]it's the heart of every man.
[03:43.87]And God is watching us, God is watching us,
[03:50.98]God is watching us from a distance.
[03:57.91]Oh, God is watching us, God is watching us,
[04:05.52]God is watching us from a distance.
