I fixed some errors (- without space) in the lyrics so the notes were better
spaced out, and set global-staff-size to 18, which is nicer than the default
20 for multi-staff scores. And removed the ragged-right setting.
btw: using -- instead of single - in the lyrics gives nice centered hyphens
between syllabes.
best regards,
