"When You've Been Blessed (Feels Like Heaven)" is a song by American singer Patti LaBelle. It was written by LaBelle, Nona Hendryx, Nathanial Wilkie, and James "Budd" Ellison for her 1991 album Burnin', while production was overseen by the latter. The song was released as the third single off the album in the spring of 1992.

Critical reception

Ron Wynn from AllMusic said the song "had decent production touches and frenetic vocals" in his review of Burnin'.^[1] Cashbox wrote, "This single is a slow-paced track that has a real smooth sound to it. For the majority of the song, LaBelle holds back on those glass-shattering vocals that she's well known for. As a follow-up to her number one hit single, "Somebody Loves You", this one seems destined to follow along that same path. Beautiful song."^[2]
