Handel's four coronation anthems use text from the King James Bible and were originally commissioned for the coronation of George II of Great Britain in 1727, but have become standard for later coronations. They are Zadok the Priest, Let Thy Hand Be Strengthened, The King Shall Rejoice, and My Heart Is Inditing. Each was originally a separate work but they were later published together.
