Down To The River

I went down to the river to pray
Studyin' about that good ol' way
And who shall wear the starry crown?
Good Lord, show me the way

Oh sisters, let's go down
Let's go down, come on down

Down in the river to pray

I went down in the river to pray
Studyin' about that good ol' way
And who shall wear the robe and crown?
Good Lord, show me the way

Oh brothers, let's go down
Come on down, don't you wanna come down?
Come on, brothers, let's go down
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

Oh fathers, let's go down
Let's go down, come on down

Studin' about that good ol' way
