Are Bishops of all faiths addressed as "Lord" in the United Kingdom?

Only bishops of the Church of England (not Scotland, etc.) sit in the House of Lords, afaik. So, they are the only "lords." This does not include all Anglican bishops, although as a courtesy, I have even heard of Canadian bishops addresses as "my lord," even thought this is not strictly speaking correct.
