Dear All: This may be a n00b question, but here goes. I'm trying to format a chant with several stanzas under one chant. The lyrics underneath the reciting tone (in this case a b-flat) insist on center-aligning themselves, despite all of my \left-aligns to the contrary. This gives the text a "christmas-tree" effect. I assume that the problem is in the lyrics context, but I am completely at a loss as to how to fix it, and the the documentation has no leads.
Thanks for any help you can give.
