Child of His Majesty’s Chapel Royal, addresses The King
The King repliesYOUR Majesty, as children of the kingdom of God we welcome you in
the name of the King of kings.
...In his name and after his example I come not to be served but to serve.
THE PRESENTING OF THE HOLY BIBLE
The Right Reverend Dr Iain Greenshields, Moderator of the General Assembly of the
Church of Scotland, receives the Bible from the Dean of Westminster and presents it
to The King, saying
THE OATHSSir, to keep you ever mindful of the law and the Gospel of God as the
Rule for the whole life and government of Christian Princes, receive
this Book, the most valuable thing that this world affords. Here is Wisdom;
this is the royal Law; these are the lively Oracles of God.
The Moderator receives the Bible and places it before The King. The King stands and
the Archbishop says
The King repliesYOUR Majesty, the Church established by law, whose settlement you
will swear to maintain, is committed to the true profession of the
Gospel, and, in so doing, will seek to foster an environment in which
people of all faiths and beliefs may live freely. The Coronation Oath has
stood for centuries and is enshrined in law.
Are you willing to take the Oath?
...I am willing.
The King kneels before the Altar and says
I can't put it all but you will find the rest here:GOD of compassion and mercy whose Son was sent not to be served
but to serve, give grace that I may find in thy service perfect freedom
and in that freedom knowledge of thy truth. Grant that I may be a blessing
to all thy children, of every faith and belief, that together we may discover
the ways of gentleness and be led into the paths of peace; through Jesus
Christ our Lord. Amen.
