John Waller 'Awakening (The Coffee Song)' New Release (Official Music Video)

Singer / Songwriter John Waller continues to use his talents to encourage and uplift, “Awakening (The Coffee Song)” is no exception. This father of nine children is no stranger to the need for a little coffee and a LOT of Jesus!


Filmed on the streets of New York City, “Awakening (The Coffee Song)” is the perfect blend (see what we did there?) of taking something we may love, like coffee and realizing that Jesus pairs beautifully with it. Because ultimately, anything we do should be the perfect pairing for Jesus, and if it’s not then we might want to take a harder look at our life choices!

“Gimme a good cup of coffee
Gimme a word that rocks me
A whole lotta Jesus and little caffeine
You are my awakening
The world that waits out the front door
Let it wait just a bit more
Cuz I need Jesus and a little caffeine
You are my awakening”

John Waller and family are no stranger to reevaluating and praying through the next big steps in life. Former front man for ‘According to John’ took a leap with his wife, Josee, and moved from the East Coast to Colorado where he became a worship pastor. Then came the solo music career and touring. It wasn’t long before God brought him to a place where another big step in life was imminent and brought about another move and another change...and more steps of faith.

"This is by far the most fun I've ever had making a music video," said John Waller. "Most of my songs are somewhat deep and thought-provoking. This is a simple song about Jesus and coffee and how the two go very well together. After my wife and I went went from 5 kids to 9 in one year--we tried to adopt one child and ended up adopting 3 siblings from Ukraine and had our sixth biological child on top of that--we began praying about other ways to support our large family. Josee, my wife, came up with the idea of doing something with coffee. Crazy Faith Coffee was born! We LOVE amazing coffee and we love great stories of crazy faith. We combined the two with a Cracker Jacks-like concept. We decided to put stories inside bags of coffee! It's so much fun!'

We think John’s “Coffee Song” is going to unexpectedly touch a lot of people and hopefully like his other songs, become a word of encouragement to keep Jesus first and pray through your decisions (with a cup o’ joe, of course!)
