The 93-year-old Queen also thanked all frontline staff in the United Kingdom and everyone carrying out essential roles.

"The moments when the United Kingdom has come together to applaud its care and essential workers will be remembered as an expression of our national spirit; and its symbol will be the rainbows drawn by children," she said.

The Queen concluded her speech calling for harmony and saying, "we will succeed."

"This time we join with all nations across the globe in a common endeavor, using the great advances of science and our instinctive compassion to heal. We will succeed -- and that success will belong to every one of us," the Queen said.
