With the following file, I want to begin adding text expressions above the
music. While I understand the basics, I am faltering on how to get the
expressions *exactly *how I want them. E.g. I want the following
phrase: ^\markup{\italic
''Blessed is the Kingdom ... ''} to be aligned above the 1st measure of
music, but evenly space, not shifting the music or notes *any *at all. How,
can I accomplish this?
Thanks,
