From a distance, the world looks blue and green,
       and the snow caped mountains, white.

     From a distance, the ocean meets the stream,
       and the Eagle takes to fly.

     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 diseases,
       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 / song of every man
