From a Distance sing and play along
From a distance, the world looks blue and green,
and the snowcapped 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.
And it's the voice of hope,
and it's the voice of peace.
It's the voice of every man.
From a distance the world sings "Silent
Night" like a soft embracing psalm.
From a distance, the words sound sweet and clear,
and all is bright and calm.
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.
Gloria, in excelsis Deo.
From a distance, you,
you look like my friend,
even though we are at war.
From a distance, I just, I cannot comprehend what all this fighting's for.
From a distance, there is harmony.
Do you hear it echo through the land?
It's the song of joy.
It's the song of peace.
It's the heart of ev'ry man.
In the season of universal love,
this is the song of ev'ry man.
God is watching us,
God is watching us,
watching us from a distance.
God is watching us,
God is watching us,
God is watching us
from a distance.
O come let us adore Him.
Joy to the world.
