An Anonymious Episcopalian
An Anonymious Episcopalian
No matter what sins you may have done
Episcopal Church always accepts anyone
And maybe you might not pay your bill
Or be an old person like me over the hill.
Could always be late and never on time
Of means or committed miserable crime
Being gay or not pleased with how I look
Were the one who stole my prayer book.
A major commandment might be broken
Instead of real big bill only a small token
Either be of little faith or even none at all
Over weight, in condition, short or tall.
They may be brilliant or somewhat inept
Up and high on drug or narcotic all pepped
On beach wearing bikini or body tattooed
Horrible house untidy pictures all skewed.
In our congregation all kinds are found
Singing song and can't bare the sound
Or may have found this hard to believe
Choir her they were willing to receive.
