Zadok The Priest
''Zadok the Priest'' ( HWV 258) is a British anthem that was composed by George Frideric Handel for the coronation of George II in 1727. Alongside '' The King Shall Rejoice'', '' My Heart is Inditing'', and '' Let Thy Hand Be Strengthened'', ''Zadok the Priest'' is one of Handel's coronation anthems. One of Handel's best-known works, ''Zadok the Priest'' has been sung prior to the anointing of the sovereign at the coronation of every British monarch since its composition and has become recognised as a British patriotic anthem. Text Part of the traditional content of British coronations, the texts for all four anthems were picked by Handel—a personal selection from the most accessible account of an earlier coronation, the Coronation of James II and VII and Mary in 1685. The text is a translation of the traditional antiphon, ''Unxerunt Salomonem'', itself derived from the biblical account of the anointing of Solomon by the priest Zadok ( 1 Kings 1:38-40).
