The album contains Dion's first three singles: "
Ce n'était qu'un rêve " (co-written by herself), "La voix du bon Dieu" and "L'amour viendra " (French adaptation of Dario Baldan Bembo's song "Tu Cosa Fai Stasera"), as well as two covers: Renée Lebas' "T'ire l'aiguille" and Berthe Sylva's "Les roses blanches."Céline Dion collaborated on this project and all her next early French recordings with Eddy Marnay who wrote songs for
Barbra Streisand ,Édith Piaf ,Nana Mouskouri andClaude François among others.René Angélil - Dion's manager (later husband) mortgaged his home to start his own record company just to produce her first records. He decided to put out two albums at the same time: "La voix du bon Dieu" and "Céline Dion chante Noël " (with Christmas songs). They had sold 30,000 copies in 1981 and they'd go on to sell about 125,000 copies the following year.
