Sweet little Jesus Boy,
they made you be born in a manger.
Sweet little Holy Child,
didn’t know who You was.
Didn’t know you come to save us, Lord;
to take our sins away.
Our eyes was blind, we couldn’t see,
we didn’t know who You was.
Long time ago, you was born.
Born in a manger low,
Sweet little Jesus Boy.
The world treat You mean, Lord;
treat me mean, too.
But that’s how things is down here,
we didn’t know t’was You.
You done showed us how,
we is trying.
Master, You done showed us how,
even when you’s dying.
Just seem like we can’t do right,
look how we treated You.
But please, sir, forgive us Lord,
we didn’t know ’twas You.
Sweet little Jesus Boy,
born long time ago.
Sweet little Holy Child,
and we didn’t know who You was….

The purpose of our classroom service is to diversely strengthen the curriculum and needed pedagogy of licensed and pre-service teachers. This builds a foundation of superior education through understanding culturally responsive curriculums direct benefit from the content of African American Registry.
Street Team programs represent a crucial part of our goal of ‘Curriculum Reform and Giving Youth a Guided Voice’. We also require College students and/or community members to learn how to implement and carry on our program. That way we instill buy-in for each community to invest in themselves. If you would like more information or to create a Street Team in your community contact the Registry at 612-822-6831 or email us at info@aaregistry.org.
