Lyrics

Zadok the priest

And Nathan the prophet

Anointed Solomon king

And all the people rejoiced

And said:

God save the king

Long live the king

God save the king

May the king live for ever

Amen. Hallelujah

God save the king

Long live the king

May the king live for ever

Amen. Hallelujah

May the king live for ever

Amen. Hallelujah

Long live the king

God save the king

Long live the king

May the king live for ever

Amen. Hallelujah
