From a Distance

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 : its 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 bombs no guns no disease
no hungry mouths to feed

from a distance we are all instruments
marching in a common band
playing songs of hope : singing 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 we cant 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 love
it's the heart of every man
