G G G C A x2                    

            G         C            D      Em             C          D           G  
From a distance the world looks blue and green and the snow-capped mountains white.  
           G        C     D        Em               C     D         G   
From a distance the ocean meets the stream and the eagle takes to flight.  
        C         D        Em             C       G           D     D7   
From a distance there is harmony and it echoes through the land.  
         C          G             C         G             C        D      G   
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're the songs of every man.  


         C      D           G      Em           C        D              G   
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.   
And 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 - This is the song of every man.  


And God is watching us God is watching us God is watching us from a distance.  
      
Oh God is watching us God is watching. God is watching us from a distance.
