Attendeth my way,
When sorrows,
Like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot,
Thou hast taught me to say,
''??It is well,
It is well, with my soul.?''
</lyric>

it appears formatted in html as <lyric> When peace like a river, Attendeth my way, When sorrows, Like sea billows roll; Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say, ??It is well, It is well, with my soul.? </lyric> Feel free to experiment in the SandBox.

Installation

Copy and paste the source code into a file named 'lyric.php', and place it in the 'extensions/' directory of your mediawiki installation.

Insert the following line into the end of 'LocalSettings.php' (before the '?>') 

require("extensions/lyric.php");

To check to see if it is installed properly, visit your Version page, eg Special:Version.

You should see the following items:

The SkinTemplateSetupPageCss:LyricCss hook may be disabled, and if done so, will not appear.

# Lyric Render Section
#
# This section has no configuration, and can be ignored.
#
# This section renders <lyric> tags. It forces a html break on every line,
# and styles the section with a css id.
# this id can either be in the mediawiki css files, or defined by the extension
#

#Instruct mediawiki to call LyricExtension to initialise new extension
$wgExtensionFunctions[] = "LyricExtension";

#Install extension
function LyricExtension()
{
  #install hook on the element <lyric>
  global $wgParser;
  $wgParser->setHook("lyric", "renderLyric");
}

#render <lyric> text
function renderLyric($input, $argv)
{
  #make new lines in wikitext new lines in html
  $transform=str_replace(array("\r\n", "\r","\n"), "<br/>", trim($input));

  #define css lyric style
  $transform="<div id=\"lyric\">".$transform."</div>";

  #parse embedded wikitext
  global $wgOut;
  return $wgOut->parse($transform, false);
}

################################################################################
# CSS Styling Section
#
# This section may require configuration.
#
# This section adds a css style to all pages to style lyric sections
#

# If you wish to manually define the style in the css templates,
# add a "#" at the start of this line:
$wgHooks['SkinTemplateSetupPageCss'][] = 'LyricCss';

function LyricCss(&$css) {
  $css = "/*<![CDATA[*/\n".
  "#lyric {\n".
  "	padding: 1em;\n".
  "	border: 1px solid silver;\n".
  "	color: black;\n".
  "	background-color: #ffffcc;\n".
  "}\n".
  "\n/*]]>*/";
  return true;
