Hello The solution proposed by Michael Martin stretches the Alleluia but doesn't solve the problem of Martin Shirk who wants to have more space between Alleluia and Amen.
The solution Br. Innocent is better. The more spaces you add between the parentheses, the more space you will have left open at that place. On the contrary, the multiplication of spaces in the text itself will not result in a bigger gap, because several spaces in the lyrics part have the same effect as only one space. Fr.
