According to http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_Save_the_Queen (in Spanish):

the original author was composer Jean Baptiste Lully, whose work was then modified

by Haendel.

See also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_Save_the_Queen. Therein, it is

asserted that attributing the work to either Lully or Haendel can be debatable.
