Where Have All The Masons Gone?
The United Grand Lodge of England confirmed that their membership numbers are now down to 200,000 from 500,000.
The drop of numbers is sad, no matter what Constitution or Grand Lodge that you follow. Saying this, I have today released a song 'Where Have All The Masons Gone? in the United Kingdom. Although based on an old folk song, it is a fun look back on a time when Freemasonry was very prominent within England. However, it could be the epitaph in years to come if Freemasonry does not change for the common good.
Lyrics are below for you and link to the song.
Let me me take this opportunity to wish you and your families a very Merry Christmas and I hope that 2018 brings health and happiness.

Where have all the old masons gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the old masons gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the old masons gone?
They've decided to resign every one
Oh, when will we ever learn?
Oh, when will we ever learn?
Where have all the masons gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the masons gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the masons gone?
They've decided to resign every one
Oh, when will we ever learn?
Oh, when will we ever learn?
Where have all the young masons gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the young masons gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the young masons gone?
Gone for genuine hobbies every one
Oh, when will we ever learn?
Oh, when will we ever learn?
Where have all the lodges gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the lodges gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the lodges gone?
Gone to graveyards every one
Oh, when will we ever learn?
Oh, when will we ever learn?
Where have all the graveyards gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the graveyards gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the graveyards gone?
Covered with lodge warrants every one
Oh, when will we ever learn?
Oh, when will we ever learn?
Where have all the Grand Lodges gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the Grand Lodges gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the Grand Lodges gone?
Gone to the Great Architect above every one
Oh, why didn't they ever learn?
Oh, why didn't they ever learn?
