LYRICS:
FROM A DISTANCE 
(Gold)

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

For a moment we must be instruments 
Marching in a common band
Playing songs of hope, playing songs of peace
There’s the song of every one

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

(Sing out) songs of hope
(Sing out) songs of freedom 
(Sing out) songs of love
(Sing out) songs of peace 
(Sing out) songs of justice 
(Sing out) songs of harmony 
(Sing out) songs of love 
(Sing out) everyone

(Sing out) sing songs of hope
(Sing out) sing songs of freedom 
(Sing out) sing songs of love
(Sing out) sing songs of peace 
(Sing out) sing out that justice 
(Sing out) sing songs of harmony 
(Sing out) sing about love
(Sing out) everyone, (sing out)
