This is for a hymn book project; the hymns are harmonised 4 voices,
but a requirement is that chords should appear as well, so guitar
players that are used to it can play an accompaniment for the
assembly. So eventhough I produce a lead sheet (melody, lyrics and
chords) as well, I think it is a good thing to have the chords also on
the assembly score.
