Multiple lyrics problem

Hi,

I'm typesetting a vocal piece (SATB) and I've run into a problem. For the most part, there is simply one set of lyrics to each part, except for a small repeating section in the middle of the piece, where each repeat has it's own lyrics (and, to complicate things a little more, a "tacet" for soprano and alto on the first stanza).

I'm wondering what the best way is to accomplish this. Basically I want this:


Some ly-rics on a sing-le line for the first part

1. (tacet)
2. Ly-rics for sec-ond stan-za
3. Ly-rics for third__ stan-za

Some more ly-rics for the last part


I can create different Voice contexts for the first, second and third part and assign the appropriate lyrics, but how do I concatenate those voices on the same staff, one after another? The lyrics and/or voice documentation is not really enlightening in this respect and the samples on the website all use different methods for combining lyrics and music...

Any pointers on how to best accomplish this are greatly appreciated!
