Tim Timmons' song 'The Outcome' is a heartfelt worship track about releasing control and trusting God's plan. The lyrics express the exhaustion of trying to manage life on one's own strength and the realization that without God's guidance, efforts are futile. The central message is surrendering the outcome of every situation to God, choosing to follow His lead and rest in His wisdom. It emphasizes the peace found in letting go of fear and embracing a life directed by God, trusting that He sees what we cannot. The song encourages believers to live out the purpose God has placed within them until His work is complete.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
I've been tryin'
To hold together
This life that I'm in
With my own power
And I'm tired
I'm so tired
Unless you build a house
Unless you build a home
Unless you lead way
It's all in vain
Unless you build a house
Unless you build a home
Unless you lead way
It's all in vain
Unless you build a house
Unless you build a home
Unless you lead way
Oh it's in vain
It's not my place
To hold the way
Or be afraid
I surrender the outcome
To live the life
You put inside
'Till your work is done
I surrender the outcome
I surrender the out come
I surrender the outcome
I surrender the outcome
If I let you lead
And I learn to follow
And trust that you see
Everything that I don't
Unless you build a house
Unless you build a home
Unless you lead way
It's all in vain
Unless you build a house
Unless you build a home
Unless you lead way
It's all in vain
Oh it's in
It's not my place
To hold the way
Or be afraid
I surrender the outcome
To live the life
You've put inside
Till your work is done
I surrender the outcome
I surrender the outcome
I surrender the outcome
I surrender the outcome
The more I try
The more I fight
The more that I find
That it's useless
Unless I trust
And I let go
And hold to you
I will never find rest
Oh it's in vain
It's not my place
To hold the way
Or be afraid
I surrender the outcome
To live the life
You put inside
'Till your work is done
I surrender the outcome
I surrender the out come
I surrender the outcome
I surrender the outcome
I surrender the outcome
I surrender the out come
I surrender the outcome
I surrender the outcome
