Maverick City Music - Nothing Left To Prove Lyrics
Lyrics
I just want to thank You, Jesus
Testimony of Your Goodness
In the safety of Your presence
'Tis so sweet
'Tis so sweet
To only trust in Jesus
In the light and in the darkness
Your overwhelming kindness
Follows me
Follows me
And You're still in the fire
Just in case we feel alone
Still walking on the water
You refuse to let us go
(Singing) Something 'bout the way You move, Jesus
Nothing left for You to prove, Jesus
I have a million reasons
To trust what You are doing
And You're doing good things (Good things, good things)
I have see it in my family
I have see it in the streets
Oh, I cannot shake your mercy
Oh, it chases me
It chases me
And you're still in the fire
(Oh yes, You are)
Just in case we feel alone
Still walking on the water
And you refuse to let us go
(You refuse to let us go, singing)
Something 'bout the way You move, Jesus
Nothing left for You to prove, Jesus
I have a million reasons
To trust what You are doing
Something about the way You speak, Jesus
Something comes alive in me, Jesus
I have a million reasons
To trust what You are doing
(I have a million reasons)
I have a million reasons
(I have a million reasons, a million reasons)
You keep doing, You keep doing
(Keep doing over and over)
You keep doing, You keep proving over and over
You keep doing, You keep proving over and over
You keep doing, You keep proving over and over
You keep doing, You keep proving over and over
You keep doing, You keep proving over and over
Over and over
Over and over
For all that we have seen, we ain't seen nothing
For all Your miracles, there's still more coming
New mercies showing up morning by morning
There's nothing left to prove
There's nothing left to prove
For all that we have seen, we ain't seen nothing
For all Your miracles, there's still more coming
New mercies showing up morning by morning
(Nothing left to prove)
There's nothing left to prove
(Nothing left to prove)
There's nothing left to prove
For all that we have seen, we ain't seen nothing
For all the miracles there's still more coming
New mercies showing up morning by morning
(Nothing left to prove)
There's nothing left to prove
(Nothing left to prove)
There's nothing left to prove
(There's nothing left to prove)
There's nothing left to prove
(No, no, no, no)
There's nothing left to prove

Nothing left for You to prove, Jesus

To trust what You are doing
Why would I doubt You now?
Why would I doubt You now?
Why would I doubt You now?
Oh look around, look around, look around
He's come through every town
Why would I doubt You now?
Look around
Why would I doubt You now?
Every time I look around, I ask
Why would I doubt You now?
(You keep doing, You keep proving over and over)
Why would I doubt You now?
(You keep doing, You keep proving over and over)
Why would I doubt You now?
(You keep doing, You keep proving over and over)
Why would I doubt You now?
(You keep doing, You keep proving over and over)
Why would I doubt You now?
(You keep doing, You keep proving over and over)
Why would I doubt You now?
Why would I doubt You now?
You keep proving over and over
Why would I doubt You?
Why would I doubt You now?
You keep proving over and over
Why would I doubt you now?
'Cause You're still in the fire
Just in case we feel alone
(Just in case, just in case)
Still walking on the water
You refuse to let us go
You're holding on (You're still in the fire)
You're still in the fire
Just in case we feel alone
(We're never alone)
Still walking on the water
And You refuse to let us go
(You're still holding on)
You're with me through the fire
Just in case we feel alone
You're still walking on the water
You refuse to let us go
(One more time say something)
Something 'bout the way You move, Jesus
Nothing left for You to prove, Jesus
I have a million reasons
To trust what You are doing
Something about the way You speak, Jesus
Something comes alive in me, Jesus
I have a million reasons
To trust what You are doing

Nothing Left To Prove (feat. Israel Houghton & Naomi Raine) | Maverick City Music
Meaning & Inspiration
Maverick City Music delivered a powerful declaration of divine faithfulness with "Nothing Left To Prove," released on February 11, 2022, as part of their impactful *Breathe (feat. Mav City Gospel Choir) - EP*. This song emerges as a profound testimony, speaking to the unwavering character of God and inviting every soul to rest in His consistent goodness. The core message revolves around the liberating realization that God has already demonstrated His love, power, and presence so completely throughout history and in personal experiences that He no longer needs to validate Himself to us. It’s an anthem born from a deep, personal encounter with a God who relentlessly pursues, protects, and provides, erasing any lingering doubt about His intentions or capabilities.
The song begins with a posture of profound gratitude, acknowledging the "goodness" of Jesus and the "sweetness" found in His presence. This sentiment echoes the psalmist's invitation to "taste and see that the LORD is good" (Psalm 34:8), reminding us that intimacy with God brings a unique form of spiritual sweetness and safety. It then broadens into a resolve to trust Jesus "in the light and in the darkness," a testament to faith that endures through every season of life, much like the steadfastness Paul spoke of in Philippians 4:11-13, learning contentment in all circumstances. The recurring affirmation that God's "overwhelming kindness" and "mercy" follow and chase us draws a beautiful parallel to Psalm 23:6, where goodness and mercy are depicted as divine companions, pursuing us throughout our days. This isn't a passive presence but an active, relentless pursuit of our well-being and redemption.
Central to the song's powerful message is the imagery of God's presence in our deepest trials: "You're still in the fire / Just in case we feel alone" and "Still walking on the water / You refuse to let us go." These lines brilliantly cross-reference biblical narratives that showcase God’s miraculous intervention and unwavering closeness. "In the fire" immediately calls to mind the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in Daniel 3, where God appeared alongside them in the fiery furnace, demonstrating that He doesn't just rescue us *from* our struggles, but is powerfully *with* us *in* them (Isaiah 43:2). Similarly, "walking on the water" evokes Jesus’s powerful appearance to His disciples during a storm (Matthew 14:22-33), illustrating His sovereignty over chaos and His ability to meet us in the midst of our fears, extending a hand of rescue. The declaration that He "refuses to let us go" firmly grounds the message in God's eternal commitment and unfailing love, as promised in Hebrews 13:5, "I will never leave you nor forsake you," and reinforced by John 10:28-29, where Jesus assures us that no one can snatch us from His hand.
The emphatic chorus, "Something 'bout the way You move, Jesus / Nothing left for You to prove, Jesus / I have a million reasons / To trust what You are doing," crystallizes the song's theological anchor. It’s a profound realization that God’s character is fully established; His past actions—personal miracles, collective mercies, and historical faithfulness—serve as irrefutable evidence of His unchanging nature. This idea is echoed in Lamentations 3:22-23, which speaks of the steadfast love and new mercies appearing "morning by morning," proving His great faithfulness. The "million reasons" to trust stems from a comprehensive understanding of His consistent track record, witnessing His goodness "in my family" and "in the streets," signifying both personal and societal manifestations of His work. The repetitive and escalating assertion, "You keep doing, You keep proving over and over," becomes a liturgical affirmation, reminding us that God's work is not a past event but an ongoing, dynamic reality that constantly reaffirms His identity. The rhetorical question, "Why would I doubt You now?" emerges as a powerful challenge to unbelief, prompting reflection on a lifetime or even generations of divine intervention. It’s an invitation to "look around" and recall His consistent deliverance, standing firm on the truth that He has come through in every situation, making doubt illogical in the face of such overwhelming evidence. This song is more than a spiritual experience; it is an undeniable call to remember, to trust, and to declare God’s enduring faithfulness in a world desperate for unwavering hope.
