@gaviscon It's possible they are keeping time for the music. That is common in older a cappella singing. Our church does it all the time. I was raised seeing older song leaders beating time to stay in the speed of the song.
God bless you for the wonderful music. Sacred Harp has almost passed in our area with the passing of so many who loved it and the Lord it is dedicated to.
Cool stuff. But not gonna lie, I was sent here by TVTropes.
