Oh just one more thing: how do I get the "love" and the "liest" to join together as one word, without a space in between? At the moment I have:
\column { \line { "See, the love"\undertie"liest""blooming rose," } " Alleluia!" "From the branch of Jesse grows," " Alleluia!" } But that produces "love" and "liest" as two separate words. Brent.
