"Heaven in My Hands" is a song by the British group Level 42. It was released as a single in 1988, from the album Staring at the Sun.
It reached number 12 in the UK charts upon release in 1988, and was the first single not to feature the Gould brothers, Boon and Phil, following their departure the previous year.
