As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the starry crown

Down in the river to pray.
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way

O brothers let's go down,
Let's go down, come on down,

Good Lord, show me the way !
O fathers let's go down,
Let's go down, come on down,

As 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 !
O mothers let's go down,

Come on mothers, let's go down,
Down in the river to pray.
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 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
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the robe and crown
Good Lord, show me the way !
