Alison Krauss — Down To 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, 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 old 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 old 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 old 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 want to 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
Studying about that good old 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 old 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 old 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 old 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 want to 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

This song deserves more spin.
A voice and spirit even a devout agnostic can appreciate.
nice to hear more from the album
Beautiful music from a beautifully eerie scene from an awesome film.

Absolutely love Alison Krauss' voice. She could sing the alphabet for all I care and I would give it at least a 9.
Halle-looyah! (this quality of singing in my old church would have redirected my path : )
