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

Alison Krauss (born July 23, 1971) is an American bluegrass-country singer, songwriter and fiddler. Signed to Rounder Records as a 14-year-old fiddler from Champaign, Illinois, she has become the most recognized face in contemporary bluegrass, a critically acclaimed artist who has brought modern sophistication to the genre while respecting its traditions. Songfacts reports that in 2011 Krauss recorded her first ever number one country album in her home country with paper airplane. She has also sold upwards of 11 million records and garnered 2 Oscar nominations as well as 26 Grammy® Awards, the most for any female artist in Grammy® history.

Also impressive is Krauss's unwavering commitment to being an independent-label artist who has succeeded far beyond the scope of many major-label artists. She has circulated freely within pop, mainstream country and roots music circles, as a solo artist and with her long-time band Union Station, creating impeccably produced records that appeal to an equally wide-ranging and inquisitive audience. Krauss has continued doing things the old-fashioned way: following her heart and whatever path the music takes her on.
