1. Refrain before verses 2. words for descant

[James E. Bradley]

I am using a template for generating some hymns, and I can't figure out 
a couple of things.
The template that I use is below.
1. What do I need to do to have a refrain before the verses, so that the 
stanza numbering is with the verses and not the refrain? For refrains in 
the middle or end, I just lengthen one of the verses, and it works out ok.
2. What do I need to do to get words printing for a descant?

The sopranoTune and altsopranoTune are the same notes, but are used to 
lessen the hassle of alligning words to notes when you want to use 
eighth notes with bars, but have words for each note.

Thank you.
