Hi Mats,
Thanks for the advice. I tried doing what you advised, consulting
also the Manual, and here's what I came up with. It compiles, but it
only has the music and no words, and the music is only part of the
whole song (the last verse). What did I do wrong?
Thanks again for a wonderful programme. And for all the advice you
give in this list.
Blessings,
Fr. Gordon Gilbert

Was blind but now I see.

And grace my fears re -- lieved;
How pre -- cious did that grace ap -- pear
The hour I first be -- lieved!
Thro' ma -- ny dan -- gers, toils and snares
I have al -- rea -- dy come
'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.

Bright shin -- ing as the sun,
We've no less days to sing God's praise
