Editing Lyrics alignment

Horizontal alignment for lyrics can be set by overriding the <code>self-alignment-X</code> property of the <code>LyricText</code> object. <code>-1</code> is left, <code>0</code> is center, and <code>1</code> is right; however, you can use <code>#LEFT</code>, <code>#CENTER</code> and <code>#RIGHT</code> as well.

<lilypond version="2.24.0">
\layout { ragged-right = ##f }

\relative c'' {
  c1
  c1
  c1
}
\addlyrics {
  \once \override LyricText.self-alignment-X = #LEFT
  "This is left-aligned"
  \once \override LyricText.self-alignment-X = #CENTER
  "This is centered"
  \once \override LyricText.self-alignment-X = 1
  "This is right-aligned"
}
</lilypond>
