Re: Text annotation for hymn stanzas

[Mats Bengtsson]

An alternative way to print a line between two verses is to add an
extra line of "lyrics" that only contains a space followed by an
extender line that lasts for the full piece. For example, in a piece
in 4/4 that is 24 bars long, you could use
\new Lyrics \lyricmode{ _1*24 __ }
