Tim Timmons' song 'Start With Me' is a prayerful reflection on personal revival and surrender. The lyrics express a desire to leave a legacy and know God's dreams, but acknowledge the struggle of feeling distant from Him. The singer realizes that true change begins not in grand efforts but in humility before God, on one's knees. The song emphasizes that when we are weak, God is strong, and He meets us in our low places. It calls believers to stop striving outside of God's will and instead let Him take their burdens, breaking lies that hold them back. The central message is that revival starts with personal surrender.

What can I do to leave a legacy

How can I speak with authority

When I can't see You

I can't see You

 

How can I know the dreams You have for me

How do I believe beyond what I have seen

When I can't hear You

I can't feel You now

 

You're my revival song

You start where I belong

On my knees, on my knees

When I am weak, You're strong

You meet me here when I'm

On my knees, on my knees

It starts with me

 

Why do I try to work outside of You

Knocking down doors I shouldn't be going through

I'm so tired, I'm so tired

 

You take my burdens off of my shoulders

You break the lies that hold me back

So I'll know that You're enough

 

I really want to change the world

I really want to sing Your song

But I know revival's got to start with me
