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
And there are no guns, no bombs and no disease
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 are 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 just cannot comprehend
What all this fighting 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

It's the hope of hopes
It's the love of loves
It's in the hearts of every man

And God is watching us
God is watching us
God is watching us
From a distance

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

  

"The Voice of Harmony"

From a distance it is so easy to see
Love and peace and harmony
But in our homes and daily life
We seem to welcome stress and strife.

Conflicts that cloud our hopes and dreams
Tensions that obscure the brightened gleam
Pressures that dim our hearts and love
Burdens that inhibit the Light from above.

We must heed the voice of harmony
Which brings peace and love for you and me
As instruments of the Masterful plan
We must sing our song throughout the land.

And God is watching us
God is watching us
From a distance.
