This sung prayer response was written for the Archdiocese of Birmingham’s Pilgrimage to Lourdes in 2014. The pastoral theme for the year – The Joy of Conversion – was a rich source of inspiration in the planning of the music for the liturgies.

The short text tries to capture a two-fold “turning of our hearts”: We turn our hearts back to God on our ongoing journey of conversion. And we turn to God in prayer and petition. 

Lord, we turn our hearts to you
Make our joy complete

We found this piece useful – particularly in the following months as we continued to unpack and explore Pope Francis’ Apostolic Exhortation: Evangelii Gaudium – ‘The Joy of the Gospel’.
