Summary:

Acclaimed upholders of the African American ring shout, the McIntosh County Shouters keep the faith, form, and fervor of the generations-old tradition rooted in their small community of coastal Georgia. Companion songs to the shuffle-step devotional movement called 'shouting' have resisted slavery, strengthened spirit, and left a cultural keystone for the future.

Contents:

Jubilee

Believer, I know

I come to tell you

Walk with me

Drive Ol' Joe

Went to the burial ; Sinner weep so

Blessed are the poor in spirit

Move, Daniel

I won't turn back

Oh, my loving mother

Army cross over

Walk through the valley in the field

Daniel saw that little stone

In the field we must die

Oh, Lord, I want you to help me

I wade the water to my knees

This may be our last time.
