Lyrics
I went down to the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
Who should wear that golden crown
Good Lord, show me the way
Yes, I went down to the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
Who should wear that golden crown
Good Lord, show me the way
Oh brothers, let's go down
Down to the river to pray
Oh brothers, let's go down
Down to the river to pray
Oh sisters, let's go down
Down to the river to pray
Oh sisters, let's go down
Down to the river to pray
Oh my brother now lets go down
My sister now lets go down
Everybody now lets go down
Down to the river, down to the river to pray
Well has it been a rough day? Man, a tough day
A day when you just had enough, hey
Man, you living in a tough state
Ain't seen enough change
I must say, I think it's time we just pray
Let's head to the river Let's go ahead and enter
A living water that flows from the Giver
And I know that my God will deliver
Any sinner that calls on Him So remember this
Oh brothers, let's go down
Down to the river to pray
Oh brothers, let's go down
Down to the river to pray
Oh sisters, let's go down
Down to the river to pray
Oh sisters, let's go down
Down to the river to pray
Oh my brother now lets go down
My sister now lets go down
Everybody now lets go down
Down to the river, down to the river to pray
Some days I pray for a lighter pack
Some days I pray for just a stronger back
Some days I pray for the things that I lack
But every time I pray I know you got it all that's a fact,
You're not alone today You are not forsaken
This is why He came I know you can make it
Change on its way It's time to embrace it
No matter what you're going through
This is what I'm saying
Oh brothers, let's go down
Down to the river to pray
Oh brothers, let's go down
Down to the river to pray
Oh sisters, let's go down
Down to the river to pray
Oh sisters, let's go down
Down to the river to pray
Oh brothers, let's go down
Down to the river to pray
Oh brothers, let's go down
Down to the river to pray
Oh sisters, let's go down
Down to the river to pray
Oh sisters, let's go down
Down to the river to pray
