Hi Mike
Welcome! First, you need \hideNotes, not \hide. Then the structure you have
doesn't quite work. It's usually easier to have all the lyrics contexts
running from the start rather than starting them part way along - they'll get
their position from the notes. Here's one way of doing it, but you'll find the
stanza number doesn't quite fit.
melody = \relative c' {
\clef treble
\key c \major
\time 4/4
c4 d e f | g f e d |
<<
\new Voice = "shown" {
\relative c' {
c4 d c d | e f g2
}
}
\new Voice = "hidden" {
\hideNotes { % !!
c'8 c d d c c d d | e f g2
}
}
>>
}
text = \lyricmode {
Here we have a | li -- tle si -- lly
}
wordsOne = \lyricmode {
\set stanza = #"1. "
Si -- lly li -- tle | al -- pha -- bet
}
wordsTwo = \lyricmode {
\set stanza = #"2. "
Si -- ly li -- tle fu -- nny soun -- ding |
Al -- pha -- bet song.
}
\score {
<<
\new Voice = "one" { \melody }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "one" \text
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "shown" \wordsOne
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "hidden" \wordsTwo
>>
\layout { }
\midi { }
}

Subject: Align Lyrics to Hidden Melody
I thnk I’m close, and posted on Stackoverflow, but can’t seem to get a hidden
melody working to show alternate lyrics. The following just shows both voices
and neither of the “associated” (or not) stanzas.
melody = \relative c' {
\clef treble
\key c \major
\time 4/4
c4 d e f | g f e d |
<<
\new Voice = "shown" {
\relative c' {
c4 d c d | e f g2
}
}
\new Voice = "hidden" {
\hide {
c'8 c d d c c d d | e f g2
}
}
>>
}
text = \lyricmode {
Here we have a | li -- tle si -- lly
<<
{
\set stanza = #"1. "
Si -- lly li -- tle | al -- pha -- bet
\new Lyrics {
\set associatedVoice = "hidden"
\set stanza = #"2. "
Si -- ly li -- tle fu -- nny soun -- ding |
Al -- pha -- bet song.
}
}
>>
}
\score {
<<
\new Voice = "one" { \melody }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "one" \text
>>
\layout { }
\midi { }
}
Some direction would be welcome (needless to say).
(And WOW - what an amazing program.
