"La voix du bon Dieu" (meaning "Good God's Voice")is the second single by Canadian singer Céline Dion, released in October 1981, in Quebec, Canada. It's also the title track from her debut album. [cite book | author=Glatzer, Jenna| title=Céline Dion: For Keeps | publisher=Andrews McMeel Publishing| year=2005 | id=ISBN 0-7407-5559-5]

On November 30 1981 the song peaked at number 11 in Quebec. The B-side included "Autour de moi."

While the version of the song included on the album of the same title (1981) contained generic back-up singers, the entire Dion family accompanied Céline Dion's 1981 vocal track for a new version included on "Tellement j'ai d'amour...".

A third version of "La voix du bon Dieu" was included on her album "Les oiseaux du bonheur", released in France in 1984. This track included a new vocal recording and softer orchestrations.

The second version of "La voix du bon Dieu" was included on Dion's 1986 compilation "Les chansons en or" and her 2005 French greatest hits compilation "On ne change pas".

The third version was included on the 1997 compilation "C'est pour vivre" and the 2002 CD re-release of her first album in France, called "Du soleil au cœur".
