: From A (Social) Distance by dovemarie

"From a (social) distance,
"The world looks blue and green
"And the snow-capped mountains white"
"From a (social) distance"
We fight an enemy unseen,
In a state of panic and fright

"From a (social) distance,
"You look like my friend"
"From a (social) distance,
I just cannot comprehend"
When this dreadful pandemic will end

We are watching Him
We are waiting on Him
Singing "songs of hope," singing "songs of peace"
'Til we're given release

"O God is watching us,
"God is watching us"
Through this virus
Trying to build up a resistance
"God is watching us...from a (social) distance"








Author Notes
I have written some of Bette Midler's lyrics From A Distance in quotation marks, so I am not trying to plagiarize, and I added some verses of my own, regarding the Corona virus. Thanks to Jim Black from Pixabay for photo. Thanks to Bette Midler,
