8. Click on the right song, and import it to the Songs folder. The template should be Grace Lyrics.

1. In the title bar of the song, choose the icon that looks like a box connected to several other boxes below it. This is the arrangements button. 

2. Where it says Master (or someone's name), click to see the other options in the dropdown menu. 

3. If the worship leader's name appears, choose that arrangement. 

4. If the worship leader's name does not appear, create a new arrangement. 

5. You can now reorder the parts of the song by dragging them into a different order, pulling one down from the top row, or deleting them out of the arrangement by clicking the X in that box. 

6. You can hide the arrangement by clicking the arrangements button again. 

1. Change the arrangement from Master to the worship leader's name in the dropdown. (See Help, the lyrics aren't in order for more detail.)

6. If there is still no corresponding announcement, ask Amanda or Aaron.
