Hymnal style lyrics on Music Creator 3

I'm new here so forgive me if I break any rules.  I have Cakewalk Music Creator 3.  I notated a song for someone, but it has, like, 9 verses.  I'd like to put all the verses in along with the notation.  Is there any way to line them up, like a hymnal?  Or can I only do one line?
Thanks!

    I do believe the staff view is only linear.... so you would not be able to do like a hymnal does....and use the repeat musical sign.... you can however, copy and paste once you have the first verse/stanza finished. that way you don't have to enter the verse 8 more times by hand..... copy and paste and it's done.

    Correct, the staff view in MC is linear only, there's no way to do repeats in the notation for MC.
     
    for that, you'd want to get real notation software such as Finale.  they have inexpensive versions which will easily do what you want.
     
    I use Finale for notation, I don't use the notation in cakewalk at all because of its severe limitations.
