This song was written by JULIE GOLD 
and originally performed by Bette Midler. 
Here are the lyrics/words:

From a distance, the world looks blue and green,
And the snow capped 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.
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're ALL 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.

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.

GOD IS WATCHING US
GOD IS WATCHING US,
GOD IS WATCHING US ... 
From a distance.

Oh, GOD IS WATCHING US
GOD IS WATCHING US,
GOD IS WATCHING US ... 
From a distance.
