From a distance, the world looks blue and green
And the snow capped mountains so 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
There are no guns, no bombs and no disease
No hungry mouths to feed

From a distance we must be instruments
Marching in a common band
Playing songs of hope, playing songs of peace
They're the songs of everyone

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
What we need is love and harmony
Let it echo through the land
It's the hope of hopes, it's the love of loves
It's the heart of everyone
It's the hope of hopes, it's the love of loves
It's the song of everyone

Songs of hope
(Simg out) songs of freedom
(Sing out) songs of love
(Sing out) songs of peace
(Sing out) songs of justice
(Sing out) songs of harmony
Songs of love
(Sing out), everyone
(Sing out), sing songs of love
(Sing out), sing songs of freedom
(Sing out), sing songs of love
(Sing out), sing songs of peace
(Sing out), sing out about justice
(Sing out), singin' all about peace
Sing about love
(Sing out), everyone
