From a distance the world~~~ looks blue and green
And the snow capped~~~~ mountains so white
From a distance the oc~ean meets the stream
And the ea~gle takes to flight
Fr~~~om a distance there is har-mo-ny
And it echoes~~~ through the land~~~~~~~~
It's the voice of~~~ hope
It's the voice of~~~ peace
It's the voice~~~~ ev~~~~ry one
From a distance we all~~~~ have enough
And no one is~~~~~ in need
There are no guns, no bombs~~~~
And no dis - ease
No~~~~ hun~~~gry mouths~~~ to feed
For~~~ a mo-ment we must be in-stru-ments
March-ing in a com-mon band~~~~
Play-ing songs of~~~ hope
Play-ing songs of~~~ peace
They're the songs of ev~~~ry one~~~~~~
God~~~~ is watching~~~~ us
God~~~~ is watching us
God~~~~ is watching us
From a dis - tance
From a distance you look~~~ like my friend
Ev-en though~~~ we are at war
From a distance, I can't com~pre~hend
What all this war ~~~~~~~~~ is for
What we need is love~~~~~~and har-mo-ny
Let it e-cho through~~~ the land
It's the hope of~~~~ hopes
It's the love of~~~~ loves
It's the heart of ev~ry one~~~.....
