"Heaven Help Us All" is a 1970 soul single composed by Ron Miller and first performed by Motown great Stevie Wonder. The song, which showcased a departure from Wonder's earlier works displaying an earthier, gospel-infused sound, continued Wonder's string of Top 10 singles on the pop charts reaching #9 on the pop singles chart. It was one of three hits Wonder scored from his Signed, Sealed, and Delivered album.
Joan Baez covered the song and included it on her 1971 album Blessed Are....
Ray Charles also covered the song on his 2004 duets album, Genius Loves Company, with Gladys Knight.
Madeleine Peyroux and William Galison also covered it in 2004 on their album Got You On My Mind.
A cover of this song performed by David Ruffin appears as a bonus track on David (The Unreleased Album), recorded in 1971 and released in 2004.
Elliott Yamin, who is a self proclaimed admirer of Steven Wonder, makes a homage to this song in his song "Find A Way", included in his first album. Yamin sings "Heaven help us all if love don't find a way".
Richie Sambora did a live cover of the song which is a track on the Bon Jovi album Fields Of Fire
