I am trying to typeset a hymn with a refrain at the bottom. The music and the lyrics for the hymn is part of one staff. The music and lyrics for the refrain is on another staff. However, when I go to create the second staff Lilypond complains that there is a syntax error at the second \new Staff command. Here is my Lilypond file. Thank you for the help.
