Christian,Folk,Historic,Religious,Spiritual. 5 pages. Scott S. Stewart #702301. Published by Scott S. Stewart (A0.1098445). “Down in the River to Pray” (or ‘Down to the River to Pray’; ‘Down in the Valley to Pray’; ‘The Good Old Way’; or ‘Come, Let Us All Go Down’) – whatever the title – it speaks across cultures… across generations. Its origin unknown, it has been thought to be an African-American spiritual, an Appalachian song, a Southern gospel hymn, or just a good old tune that brings peace and comfort to those in need. It has a rich illustrious history during the Underground Railroad, making this an apt tune during Black History month; or sing it in church, at a bluegrass festival or just about any gathering of musicians – and be prepared that folks are going to sing along. This arrangement is scored for 4-part SATB ensemble to be performed a cappella. Performance time: 3:15.
