I am starting to set Orthodox chant (in English). How do I get a whole
phrase of text to split into two (or even three) lines. EG I would like to
fit "while the soldiers were guarding Thy most pure" under one semibreve. So
that it comes out something like:

 

While the soldiers

were guarding Thy

most pure

 

Rather than taking up half a staff of music.

 

Thank you for any help you can give a beginner.
