Take care of this house
Keep it from harm
If bandits break in sound the alarm
Care for this house
Shine it by hand
And keep it so clean
The glow can be seen all over the land.
Be careful at night,
Check all the doors,
If someone makes off with a dream
The dream will be yours.
Take care of this house
Be always on call
For this house is the home of us all.

To me, Patricia Routledge's richer voice suits this song better. Cynthia is a great artiste, but her voice here sounds too thin for my taste, especially at the big climax!

[@aydenanthony6508]

Still think Jennifer Hudson's version was better.

[@justshowmehow]

Two people, two Black woman, can sing two different and beautiful versions. Isn't that wonderful?

[@stardustboy94]

Yes I agree.It moved me.

[@aydenanthony6508]

@Itsjust Xy yo mama

[@nathangraham1611]

they're performed in completely different styles and keys, it's apples and oranges

[@raaid22]

That's fine, different strokes for different folks .

[@yvettewheeler9125]

Jennifer Hudson does it better hands down. SORRY.
