River water clear, washing clean rocks, washing rocks bubbles rise and fall wavelets break on piled-up rock and Sister whispers, Jesus Nan (Pilgrim variety) |

"I went down In the river To pray" I've been reading this to pieces. It's such a small word, but why In the river? (If you don't mind indulging me with the question, that is.) It's a teeny little word, but using "in" the river instead of "to" implies a baptism. Is that the intent? ? <--*smile* |
