In your eyes I see pain
But your light gives me faith,
In your voice, is grief
Still your words have grace,
I know your heart is broken
I know you are in pain
I know no word can comfort
Just know that we are here in prayer
Floods will dry, bricks will rise
In every seed, hope survives,
The wait is long, I know
But every day we grow,
I know your heart is broken
I know you are in pain
I know no word can comfort
Just know that we are here in prayer
From healing scars remain
A mark of truth and pain
Reminds us we were brave
We will be strong again

Sami Yusuf releases charity single ‘Hope Survives’ for his #LiveFeedPh campaign in partnership with WFP. All profits are donated to the victims of the tragic Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines. www.LiveFeedPhilippines.org
Typhoon Haiyan ripped through the central Philippines on 8 November 2013, leaving behind it a path of death and destruction and millions of people in urgent need of emergency assistance.
Since then, WFP has been reaching out to survivors with food supplies. In the early stages, WFP provided high-energy biscuits, as they are easy to transport, need no cooking and are particularly convenient with children. Rice rations and Plumpy’Doz, a specialized nutrition product, are now also being distributed as part of the overall response.
A month after the typhoon struck, WFP had dispatched over 11,000 metric tons of food including 11,100 tons of rice, 260 tons of high-energy biscuits and 18 tons of specialized nutrition products for children, reaching some 3 million people.
