This was an amazing session at Catalyst -- a huge Christian conservative, conference outside of Atlanta. 14,000 mostly Southern Baptist church men on their feet denouncing imperialism and war. This is a "litany" in the old church tradition. The audience is confirming what Shane is saying, by saying, "We will not comply" and then "We pledge allegiance." 

Shane Claiborne at Catalyst - Litany of Resistance - bootleg!

Lord, bless Africa
May her horn rise high up
Hear Thou our prayers
And bless us.

Chorus
Descend, O Spirit
Descend, O Holy Spirit

(And at the end, the group wrapped up with, "Power... To the people!" ... and then started up another song.)

How a room of South African autoworkers (not a professional choir) sings the national anthem!
