>From the musixlyr point of view, it would be more straightforward to
make clear that the 2nd verse has a melisma here. This does not only
draw a proper continuation line but also left-justifies the affected
syllable:
{Verse2}
Herr Va-ter, Frau Mut-ter,
da{\ss} Gott euch be-h{\"u}t!
%% \\def\BM{\verses{,\beginmel}}\
%% \\def\EM{\verses{,\endmel}}\
(l f8 g ) | a4 a4d b8 | [l ( d c ) ] c4l a | \BM\ c8 \EM\ b b4l c4l | a2
L: {Verse1,Verse2}
r4b | rpb | rpb | (l c8+ b ) r2b | rb
