Lyrics:

As I went down in the river to pray
Studyin' about that good ole 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 ole 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
Come on brothers let’s go down, down in the river to pray

As I went down in the river to pray
Studyin' about that good ole way and who
Shall wear the starry crown good lord show me the way

O fathers let’s go down, let’s go down
Come on down
O fathers let’s go down, down in the river to pray


As I went down in the river to pray
Studyin' about that good ole way and who
Shall wear the robe and crown good lord show me the way

O mothers let’s go down, come on down, don't you want to go down
Come on mother let’s go down, down in the river to pray

As I went down in the river to pray
Studyin' about that good ole way and who
Shall wear the starry 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
Studyin' about that good ole way and who
Shall wear the robe and crown good lord show me the way
