Hi again, I did a bit of tweaking for you. Hope you don't mind, but it produces a nicer-looking piece of sheet music. As I said in my last email, I'm not familiar with the piece, so only you can judge the correctness of my suggestions, but I did the following:
added a quarter-rest instead of a skip at the beginning changed {ragged-right=##f} instead of ##t made the last note a whole-note to complete the bar. You might want to put some header lines in with title, etc. All this makes things scan correctly. Here is the revised code: \version "2.13.29" \paper {ragged-right=##f} melody = \relative c' { \clef treble \key d \major \time 4/4 r4 fis4 fis8 e4. d1~ d4 d4 fis4 a4 b2~ (b8 a8 b4) a2. a4 b4. b8 b4 b4 a4 fis2 e4 d4. d8 cis4 d4 e4 fis4 fis4 e4 d1~ d4 d4 fis4 a4 b2~ (b8 a8 b4) a2. a4 b4. b8 b4 b4 a4 fis2 d8 d8 e4 d4 fis8 e4. d2. r4 \bar "||" e4 e4 e4 e4 fis8 e8~ e2 a,4 b4 d4 d8 e4. d2. r4 e4 e4 e4 e4 fis4. fis8 fis4. a,8 b8. d16 d4 e4 d4~ d2. r4 fis4 fis4 fis4 fis4 fis8 e4. e4 e4 g4 g8 g4. g4 g4 fis8 fis4. fis4 e4 e4 e4 e8 fis8~ fis4 e4 r4 a,8 a8 b4 d4 d8 e4 d8~ d1 } text = \lyricmode { My Je -- sus rose on Eas -- ter mor -- ning, He came to sing a love song, He came to be my friend.
