rate me

Song by Alison Krauss<br /><br>

As I went down in the river to pray <br>

Studying about that good old way <br>

And who shall wear the starry crown <br>

Good Lord, show me the way ! <br>

<br>

O sisters let's go down, <br>

Let's go down, come on down, <br>

O sisters let's go down, <br>

Down in the river to pray. <br>

<br>

As I went down in the river to pray <br>

Studying about that good old way <br>

And who shall wear the robe and crown <br>

Good Lord, show me the way ! <br>

<br>

O brothers let's go down, <br>

Let's go down, come on down, <br>

Come on brothers let's go down, <br>

Down in the river to pray. <br>

<br>

As I went down in the river to pray <br>

Studying about that good old way <br>

And who shall wear the starry crown <br>

Good Lord, show me the way ! <br>

<br>

O fathers let's go down, <br>

Let's go down, come on down, <br>

O fathers let's go down, <br>

Down in the river to pray. <br>

<br>

As I went down in the river to pray <br>

Studying about that good old way <br>

And who shall wear the robe and crown <br>

Good Lord, show me the way ! <br>

<br>

O mothers let's go down, <br>

Let's go down, don't you want to go down, <br>

Come on mothers let's go down, <br>

Down in the river to pray. <br>

<br>

As I went down in the river to pray <br>

Studying about that good old way <br>

And who shall wear the starry crown <br>

Good Lord, show me the way ! <br>

<br>

O sinners let's go down, <br>

Let's go down, come on down, <br>

O sinners let's go down, <br>

Down in the river to pray. <br>

<br>

As I went down in the river to pray <br>

Studying about that good old way <br>

And who shall wear the robe and crown <br>

Good Lord, show me the way !<br>
