Newbie though I may be, you'll find a http://old.nabble.com/override-lyric-font-size-td27160408.html recent discussion about changing lyrics' properties. While waiting for a more authoritative answer: If you want to change for a specific stanza, you could change it there. Otherwise, in the middle of everything, you need an \override inside the \lyricmode, specifying what property you want changed. The example in the linked thread cites changing font size, so here's a snippet using that for you. %======================= soprano = \relative c' { e8 e g4 b d8 f | } words = \lyricmode { Ev -- 'ry good boy \override LyricText #'font-size = #-2 does fine } \score { << \new Staff { \new Voice = sop { \soprano } } \context Lyrics \lyricsto sop \words >> } %======================= For other properties, refer to the Learning Manual, 4. "Tweaking output" and the Internals Reference (here, 3. Backend > 3.1 All layout objects > 3.1.58 LyricText).
