Down To The River To Pray Lyrics


As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the starry crown
Good Lord, show me the wayO sisters let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
O sisters let's go down
Down in the river to prayAs I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the robe and crown
Good Lord, show me the wayO brothers let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
Come on brothers let's go down
Down in the river to prayAs I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the starry crown
Good Lord, show me the wayO fathers let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
O fathers let's go down

Down in the river to prayAs I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the robe and crown
Good Lord, show me the wayO mothers let's go down, come on down
Don't you want to go down
Come on mothers let's go down
Down in the river to prayAs I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the starry crown
Good Lord, show me the wayO sinners let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
O sinners let's go down
Down in the river to prayAs I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the robe and crown
Good Lord, show me the way

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Gillian Welch explains that Emmylou Harrisand Alison Krauss took delight in making her sing the highest part in their trio, "Didn't Leave Nobody but the Baby", when both Harris and Krauss have higher-register voices.
Harris sang the bass part on the song, which is unusual for the singer, who is well known for her role as the "angel" vocalist in duets and backing vocals with other artists.
