Re: 2nd stanza lyrics cont.

Hi Stéphane

You might find it easier to use one of the built-in templates  - see 
appendix A1 of the Learning Manual,

https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.22/Documentation/learning/satb-template

These templates avoid the complications of setting up the score 
structure altogether for most forms of vocal music. I used them all the 
time to prepare music when I was leading a small choir.

Worth a look.
