The following is this poem, in the original structure as written by Reverend Jackson. Lines of "I am/Somebody" or "But I am/Somebody" were recited both by the children and Jackson.
I am
Somebody
I am
Somebody
I may be poor
But I am
Somebody
I may be young
But I am
Somebody
I may be on welfare
But I am
Somebody
I may be small
But I am
Somebody
I may make a mistake
But I am
Somebody
My clothes are different
My face is different
My hair is different
But I am
Somebody
I am black
Brown
White
I speak a different language
But I must be respected
Protected
Never rejected
I am
God's child
