VideoPsalm uses the concept of cascading style attributes, enabling you to define any style attribute at any level : song verse, song, songbook, all songbooks, base.

There will be a drop-down menu to select the level (song verse, song, songs, songbook, etc.).

Make sure you select "Song", that way all the changes for background will apply to the whole song (all song verses).
