changing lyric font

[Dr. med. Kai Lautenschläger]

Hi Everybody,

is there a possibility to change the lyric font? I would like to add lyrics in 
hebrew and found out, how to include utf-8 in the lyrics. For better 
readability I need a hebrew font other then the standard. For \markup texts 
that works just fine. But in the \lyricmode it doesn't. Can anyone help me on 
that?

Using Version 2.15.38 with no problems so far.

thanks in advance!

Kai
