Royals prepare for Prince Philip’s funeral

Prince Philip’s “unwavering loyalty” to the Queen will be praised at his funeral, along with his “courage, fortitude and faith”.

During today’s ceremony, several hymns will be sung by a small chorus of three choristers, a soprano, and Bible passages will be read out.

Among the songs picked out is the hymn Eternal Father, Strong To Save, traditionally associated with members of the navy like the Duke of Edinburgh.
