Hi,
i'm using LaTeX with lilypond-book and am quite happy with it, but you
should go with a recent version of lilypond, especially if you're on
windows, as i had a lot of trouble with the 2.8.x series. I chose to go
with LaTeX and lilypond-book, because i wanted to add pictures and
background graphics to my songbook.
I keep each song in an own .ly file and include them with
\lilypondfile[staffsize=20]{song.ly}
The numbers to the songs can be set with LaTeX counters
regards
rene
