Quoted lyrics

"The lyrics appear in the book as follows" - It's a quote. Yet people keep "correcting" the original lyrics. Since they are clearly shown in the picture anyway, I'm going to delete them from the text. Rosekelleher (talk) 07:20, 24 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Origins unknown

The hymns origins are not known. It is incorrect to say that "Research suggests that it was composed by an African-American slave". That is mere speculation.Royalcourtier (talk) 07:49, 16 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

The earliest known publication of the song was in a book of SLAVE SONGS. If you can prove that it was written by someone other than a slave, then by all means, show us your reliable sources. Otherwise, it's safe to assume it was written by a slave. Rosekelleher (talk) 18:02, 16 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Down in the River to Pray. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20131002202621/http://lincoln.lib.niu.edu/cgi-bin/philologic/getobject.pl?c.5248:1.lincoln to http://lincoln.lib.niu.edu/cgi-bin/philologic/getobject.pl?c.5248:1.lincoln

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{Sourcecheck}}).
