HI David, > Do I need to name the repeated section and then integrate it in the "score" > section?
Here's a hint: \version "2.10.0" \header { title = "Friendship (8-7 8-7 8-8-8-7)" piece = "Early American" composer = "G. Cook" } #(set-default-paper-size "letter" 'portrait) stanzaOneA = \lyricmode { \set stanza = "1." Friend- ship, to ev'- ry will- ing mind, O- pens a heav'n- ly trea- sure, There may the sons of sor- row find Sour- ces of last- ing plea- sure. See what em- ploy- ments men pur- sue, Then you will own my words are true, Friend- ship a- lone pre- sents to view Sour- ces of last- ing plea- sure. } stanzaOneB = \lyricmode { There may the sons of sor- row find Sour- ces of last- ing plea- sure. } sopranoMusic = \relative c'' { \sacredHarpHeads \set shapeNoteStyles = ##(fa #f la fa #f la mi) \clef treble \key g \major \autoBeamOff \time 4/4 \repeat "volta" 1 { g4 g8 e8 d4 d4 | g4 e'4 d2 | d8[ c8] b8 a8 g4 e4 | a2 g2 | } g4 g8 e8 d4 d4 | g4 e'4 d2 | d8[ c8] b8 a8 g4 e4 | a2 g2 b4 b8 b8 c4 a4 | b4 c8[ d8] e2 | g,4 b8 g8 a4 g4 | e'4 e4 d2 g,4 g8 e8 d4 d4 | g4 e'4 d2 | d8[ c8] b8 a8 g4 e4 | a2 g2 } \score { << \new Voice = "one" \sopranoMusic \new Lyrics \lyricsto "one" \stanzaOneA \new Lyrics \lyricsto "one" \stanzaOneB >> \layout { indent = 0 \cm firstpagenumber = no papersize = a4 } } You should really read the docs about vocal music — you are not coding the hyphens correctly, etc. Hope this helps!
