Kathy Mattea - From A Distance lyrics

From a distance, the earth 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, no diseases

And 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

It's the hope of hopes

It's the love of loves

It's the song of every man

And God is watching us

God is watching us...
