Terminology for syncopated harmony

Tisket? Trisket?

You have a song going along, and another singer joins in, in harmony, but only using a few of the main words? I know what I mean but am tring to come up with an example. Like, maybe, the Glory, Glory Halleluliahs sung behind Mine eyes have seen in the final verse in Odetta's 1959 version? Sorry, I can't find an online link for you.

But what is he term for that kind of keyword offbeat harmonizing?

Oh, I looked for a related thread to refresh. None were appropriate, but the most fun one was on terms of abuse...
