Your code is rather big. It also has a lot of commented-out
sections which make it hard to see what's going on. It also doesn't
compile cleanly because I don't have a file called "ident.ly".
If you can boil your problem down to a minimal example, it will
help people figure out what's going on without having to read
through a lot of code. See:
http://lilypond.org/tiny-examples.html
In any case, if I've understood what you're asking, I think the
problem is, to use alignAboveContext / alignBelowContext here, you
need a Staff, not a voice. For example:
\version "2.18.2"
\score {
<<
\new Staff <<
\new Voice = "soprano" \relative c' {
e4 d c d e e e r
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "soprano" {
Ma -- ry had a
<<
{ lit -- tle lamb, }
\new Lyrics \with {
alignAboveContext = #"bass-staff"
} {
\set associatedVoice = #"soprano"
laz -- er bat,
}
>>
}
>>
\new Staff = "bass-staff" <<
\new Voice = "bass" \relative c {
\clef bass
c4 c g' g a a g r
}
>>
>>
}
And you want to align -above- the staff context underneath the
lyrics (because if you align below the staff you're putting lyrics
to, the "second verse" will be above the first.
Hope this helps,
Tyler
