I'm grateful for your help.

\markup … can perfectly well be used for lyrics.

Greetings!I understand that you can make the same settings for lyricmode. But I ask you to show me some example. Since I am not very good at lilypond myself. I really need to be able to make the first syllable of a word, the beginning of a sentence of a song or a romance or a psalm in red or any other color for my next sets of notes. It is very much requested that you teach me how to do this. As the specificity of my set will often meet with such phenomenon as, "red first letter of a syllable".

Open the Notation Reference, turn to the index, and look up
"markup, in lyrics". Turn to the page indicated (p316 in
mine) and there are examples for lyrics involving fonts,
size and colour.

Cheers,
David.

Combine my previous example with the code from this LSR snippet:

  https://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=373

If you have problems please post a (failing) example that we can help
you improve.

That's a fairly big ask to the members on the mailing list.  
Technically, you have been shown all the basic techniques of \markup 
commands to be able to do this.  To make a reference to school, we are 
not going to do your homework.  Now, if you have a specific question 
along with code you have written as reference, we are more than willing 
to try to answer it.  But an open-ended request for "teach me to how to 
do this long list of things" is probably not going to see much response.


I do not want to leave you with nothing, lest I come across as being 
judgmental.  Take a look at this bit of Lilypond:



  \version "2.25.13"

  \paper { indent = 0 tagline = #f }

  rubricRed = #(x11-color 'firebrick)

  %% Manual method in markup.
  \markup {
\concat {
  { \with-color \rubricRed Sanc }
  { tus }
}
  }

  \relative { \key f \major bes'2 c4( a) | bes1 \fine }
  \addlyrics {
%% Manual method in markup within lyricsmode.
\markup \with-color \rubricRed Glo -- ri -- a.
  }

  %% Automated methods (ADVANCED).
  redden = #(define-scheme-function
(red-text normal-text) (markup? markup?)
  #{  \markup \concat {
{ \with-color \rubricRed #red-text }
{ #normal-text } } #})

  %% Testing with automation.
  \markup {
\redden Sanc tus
  }

  \relative { \key f \major bes'2 c4( a) | bes1 \fine }
  \addlyrics {
%% Testing with automation.
\redden Glo "" -- ri -- a.
  }
