Where Have All the Dioceses Gone?

With apologies to Pete Seeger,

Where have all the Dioceses gone?
Long time leaving
Where have all the Dioceses gone?
Not so long ago
Where have all the Dioceses gone?
Christians have packed them up every one
When will we ever learn
When will we ever learn

Where have all the Christians gone?
Long time leaving
Where have all the Christians gone?
Not so long ago
Where have all the Christians gone?
To a new Province on the run
When will we ever learn
When will we ever learn

Where has the Episcopal Church gone?
Long time passing
Where has the Episcopal Church gone?
Not so long ago
Where has the Episcopal Church gone?
Gone to the courtroom every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?

Where have all the sinners gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the sinners gone?
Not so long ago
Where have all the sinners gone?
Cleansed by Christ's blood every one
When will we ever learn?
When will we ever learn?
