This isn't perfect but may be a place for you to start
here is the code
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
%right and left brace setup
leftbrace = \markup { \override #'(font-encoding . fetaBraces) \bold
\lookup #"brace105" }
rightbrace = \markup { \rotate #180 \leftbrace }
%lyrics setup
stanzaOneLineOne = {
\set stanza = \markup { "1. " \leftbrace }
\lyricmode { Child, you're mine ...
}
}
stanzaOneLineTwo = {
\lyricmode { Child, I have ...
}
}
%calling lyrics in the score
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "One" \stanzaOneLineOne
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "One" \stanzaOneLineTwo

Hi,
how do I create braces within lyrics to clarify that two lines of text
belong to the same verse (see textbrace1.jpg) or when there´s a part
of lyrics which belongs to all verses (see textbrace2.jpg)?
