Wafika (written by Dr Tumi) .

Had been longing for a while
Nothing else could ever satisfy. 
A thirst that no one else ...could quench 
An emptiness That I could never fill.   .

Wafika kimi Ngathol? uk?uphil? okunguna phakade (You arrived and I found eternal life)
Wangiphefumlela Ngathol? Uk?phil? emthonjeni wakho (You arrived and I found life from your well) .

Troubled heart and troubled mind 
Didn?t know who?d come and save my life
Had no rest I didn?t have joy
I was lost I didn?t even know .

Ngiyabonga (Thank you)
Moyo ?ingcwele (Holy Spirit)
Wafika kimi (You arrived)
Ngathol? uk?uphil? okunguna phakade (I found eternal life) .

Ke a leboga (Thank you)
Wafihla gonna (You arrived)
Ka hwetja bophelo bosafeleng (I found eternal life) .

Wafika means He arrived and it is centered around having received eternal life from that. written and translated by Dr Tumi the lyrics and translations.
