but that should be sufficient, but to repeat Hraban's question: What would be the advantage of using the format module?

The module provides features like

     - alignment of the verse lines
    - numbering of the lines (which isn't supported by \startlines unless you add the normal linenumbering mechanism)     - support for lines which don't fit on a single page where the consecutive lines are indented

but the module is outdated and relies on an old mkii style code base.

A big difference between the \startlines environment and the format module is that the first treats each line in the input file as a separate line in the output while the format module requires begin/end
tags for each line which works better for xml input.

Thank you! Doesn’t sound like I should use it…
