I WAS glad when they said unto me: We will go into the house of the Lord. Our feet shall stand in thy gates: O Jerusalem. Jerusalem is builded as a city: that is at unity in itself. Vivat Regina Elizabetha! Long live Queen Elizabeth! O pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee. Peace be within thy walls: and plenteousness within thy palaces.
Charles Hubert Hastings Parry (1848-1918) Psalm 122: 1-3, 6-7
THE RECOGNITION
All remain standing. The Very Reverend Dr John Hall, Dean of Westminster, gives THE BIDDING
SIXTY years ago, in this holy place, Queen Elizabeth II was anointed with holy oil, clothed with sacred garments, and, after receiving symbols of authority, crowned with the Crown of St Edward, King and Confessor, just as Her Majesty's royal predecessors from 1066.
Here today we gather to give thanks to almighty God for the faithful ministry and dutiful service The Queen continues to offer God and the people of this Nation, the Overseas Territories and the Realms, and as Head of the Commonwealth.
As we pray for Her Majesty, for The Duke of Edinburgh,The Prince of Wales, and other members of the Royal Family in health and wealth long to live, and for peace and prosperity throughout these lands, so shall we pray for the grace of God, that we too may offer our lives in faithful service and whole-hearted commitment for the good of our communities and nations.
Let us pray:
ALMIGHTY God, who through anointing with the oil of gladness at the hands of priests and prophets dost strengthen thy chosen servants with the gifts of thy Holy Spirit: be pleased to accept our joyful praise as, with united voice, we give thanks for the long and glorious reign of our Sovereign Lady Queen Elizabeth; and to receive our humble prayer that, by renewing thy blessings, thou wilt pour upon her thy choicest gifts, and upon all thy people the spirit of humility and service, shown forth in the life and death of him who is the anointed King of all, our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Amen.
All remain standing for THE NATIONAL ANTHEM
GOD save our gracious Queen.
Long live our noble Queen. God save The Queen.
Send her victorious, Happy and glorious, Long to reign over us: God save The Queen.
