John Waller: While I’m Waiting

John Waller finds his sophomore album, While I’m Waiting, being launched into the world via last years hit film Fireproof. John, formerly of the group According To John, has released an album that is hard hitting,uplifting, and encouraging. The lyrics of the title track, While I’m Waiting, a song about obedience and patience, remain with you. There are many other songs on this album that will jump into the listener’s heart!  One of my favorites has to be the second track, Faith is Living. This song talks about the normal Christian walk, and how the Lord will break through all of the muck and junk that we find ourselves in. This song speaks to where many Christians are. Living by faith is not something that we do lightly, but as the lyrics say “you have not lived till you live by faith”.  This is the daily call of the Christian, and John puts it into perspective through this song.

Another song that catapults the listener into an encounter with the creator is Hands of the Healer. This upbeat song drives the heart, but has lyrics that paints a picture of what Jesus did on the cross for us all!

I really enjoyed this album. Over all the music is good, yet towards the end of the album I found myself getting bored with it due to a lack of music variety. However this could be a strong choice by this artist! I personally enjoy a variety of sounds, from lyrical, to more rhythmic. Overall though, this is an excellent album. I genuinely felt ushered into the presence of God as a result of my worship thorough this album. I’m anxiously awaiting Waller’s next release. You should definitley add this album to your collection.
