Another solution is using the \metron macro. You'll have to disable
lyrics within the macro:
...
%%
\def\mymetron#1#2{\lyricsoff\hbox{\smallnotesize\metron{#1}{#2}}\lyricson}
%%\twelveit Per il battesimo di Ilaria
%%\font\elevensf=cmss10 scaled \magstep1\elevensf
U: @+4 \ppff{Tranquillo}~(\mymetron{\qu}{96})

...
NB Notice the MusiXLyr trick to separate stanza numbers from the lyrics.
BTW
-You should right shift - in stead of left shift shift - the third note
of the alto part in measure 14.
-You should seriously consider whether you actually want to use parallel
fifths in your choral setting. Although there is no death penalty :-)
for parallel fifths they are usually avoided in a context like this.
This also applies to 'hidden' parallels like the one between tenor and
basso in measure 8, 2-3 note.
-You should avoid intervals > octave between other parts than tenor and
basso.
