Hello list,
I am having trouble setting lyrics to a choral part that divides
itself for a few bars only. Here is an excerpt:
#(ly:set-option 'old-relative)
\version "2.4.0"

\new Lyrics \lyricsto "T" {
If mu- sic food of love,
sing "" on, "" "" "" "" sing on, sing on,
till I am fil'd, am fill'd with joy. "" ""
Then "" my "" list'- "" ning soul you move,
For then my list'- ning "" "" soul you move,
To plea- sures that can ne- ver cloy. "" ""
Your eyes, your mien, your tongue de- clare,
You are mu- - - sic ev- ry- where.
Your "" eyes, "" your eyes, your mien, your tongue de- clare
that you are mu - - sic ev- "" ry- where.
Plea- sures in- vade "" both "" eye and ear,
so fierce the trans- ports are, they wound.

(There really are three more voices, of course.)
Now, the manual told me how to use << >> in order to divide a part
temporarily, but how do I associate lyrics with either of the divided
parts? As you see, the text simply skips the divided section:
`Pleasures invade' should coincide with the Solo in bar 23, but it is
only set under bar 29.
