God Save the King to be sung for first time at St Paul’s memorial service
The first official rendition of God Save the King will be sung at St Paul’s Cathedral at the end of a memorial service for the Queen.The lyrics to the national anthem will change from “Queen” to “King” and “her victorious” to “him victorious” to mark that King Charles III has now taken over as monarch. It comes after crowds spontaneously sang the version of the song outside of Buckingham Palace on Friday as the King arrived with the Queen.The anthem is also expected to be sung at the Kia Oval on Saturday as the England v South Africa Third Test Match resumes.
