Hello,

Is there a way to automatically repeat the verse numbers on each line
when it is defined by \set stanza = "1."
without repeating this instruction within the verse text

with this structure in the score part, lyrics being defined in variables

\new Lyrics \lyricsto "VoiceOne" { \set stanza = "1." \VerseOne }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "VoiceOne" { \set stanza = "2." \VerseTwo }
...

For a 5-verse song, it's best to repeat these verse numbers!

Not to my knowledge, but this is something that's quite high on my list
of LilyPond enhancements I'd like to try my hands at. Stay tuned.

(As far as I can see, it's not completely trivial to implement since we
have to wait until the line breaking is known, and then horizontal
spacing has to take the additional stanza numbers into account.)

Lukas
