'God Save the King' Plays for the First Time as Charles wears Imperial State Crown

I think you can see the grief in his eyes... hearing the song that was sung for his late mother so many years, now sung for him.

Seeing the other royals bow started to hit me. Makes you realize how long the institution has endured, and the reverence people give to King in their presence.

I was at Hampton Court Palace at a memorial service for the Queen a few days after her passing. I'm probably one of the first Americans to hear a live rendition of "God Save the King" for King Charles and I even got to sing along. The lady next to me was in tears during the anthem and told me that it was the first time she had sung the words in over 70 years. It was an incredibly moving experience.

I can proudly say i watched the entire coronation, i will never forget that for the rest of my entire live.

I absolutely love the anthem and especially the fanfare at the beginning. It really brings out the grandeur of this country’s anthem. The whole ceremony was brilliant and I’m so glad I had the day off to watch it properly. This is what the UK is famous for, it’s royalty, Pageantry, traditions that are hundreds of years old and still in 2023, we can enjoy such a momentous occasion in our true Great British style and ways. God Save The King!

Those trumpet players are incredible.

Even Louis knew the words and sang. So sweet.

God save our gracious King! Long live our noble King! God save the King! Send him victorious, Happy and glorious, Long to reign over us, God save the King. Thy choicest gifts in store On him be pleased to pour, Long may he reign. May he defend our laws, And ever give us cause, To sing with heart and voice, God save the King.

From America and I’m here to say “God Save the King”

I cried. That man has been villified his entire life by public and press. I felt the best summary of his character was from the lady talking about The Princes Trust - she was absolutely right regarding his forward thinking mindset. My father was Welsh. My mother is Irish. I'm a proud Bristolian Brit and I just wanted to hug our King. God save our gracious King ❤

Greetings from the Philippines 🇵🇭 the Kings most loyal subject swears my loyalty to king and country.

The king looks tired, and no wonder. This whole process would wear out a much younger man. It was touching to see how attentive and supportive the clerics were with him.

It was a great privilege that this channel has allowed us to see this ancient ceremonial rite, very emotional and beautiful. All a contribution to knowledge. Thank you very much for this....from Chile with much affection.

May God bless his majesty the King Charles III and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland 🇬🇧 ❤ 🇰🇷
