    Not religious, but this is always a beautiful song.

    I'm not religious but this song has always tempted me. Mom's favorite movie since I was a kid so I heard it many times.
  • My father in law just passed away yesterday - his kids sang this too him in hospital. This song will always have a place in my heart.

    My mom got baptized to this song at her now annual Lutheran women’s retreat.There was a small river at the site, so all the ladies sang and got some good pictures as she and our (female) pastor waded into the water.

    Before I knew God as a confused kid in a Christian school, I used to listen to this song on my iPod nano and feel like I was religious. I know and Love and have a relationship with God for myself now, and I still love this song :).

  • As I went down in the river to pray Studying about that good ol' 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 Studying about that good ol' 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 Studying about that good ol' 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 Studying about that good ol' 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 wanna 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 ol' 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 ol' way And who shall wear the robe and crown Good Lord, show me the way
