Down In The River To Pray [*]

As I went down to the river to pray

Studyin' about that good ol' way

And who shall wear the robe and crown?

Good Lord, show me the way



O brothers, let's go down

Let's go down, come on down

O brothers, let's go down

Down in the river to pray



As I went down in the river to pray

Studyin' about that good ol' way

And who shall wear the starry crown?

Good Lord, show me the way



O sisters, let's go down

Let's go down, Come on down

O sisters, let's go down

Down in the river to pray



As I went down in the river to pray

Studyin' about that good ol' way

And who shall wear the starry crown?

Good Lord, show me the way



O mothers, let's go down

Let's go down, don't you wanna go down?

Come on mothers, let's go down

Down in the river to pray



As I went down in the river to pray

Studying about that good ol way

And who shall wear the robe and crown?

Good Lord, show me the way



O sinners, let's go down

Let's go down, come on down

O sinners, let's go down

Down in the river to pray



As I went down in the river to pray

Studin' about that good ol' way

And who shall wear the robe and crown?

Good Lord, show me the way
