Hi Meo,

As a working church musician I am doing stuff like this all the time.

Here is the "Sets" page from my MuseScore.com account......

If you look at some of the scores there, particularly those based on chant, such as this one....
https://musescore.com/churchorganist/scores/155127

Then you should begin to get an insight into how this is achieved.

I would start off by using one of the liturgical templates, and then set a suitable time signature which will allow you to enter the longest sentence - I usually use 30/8.

Once you have entered the notes for your sentence, use the Split Measure option with the first rest selected, and then delete the empty bar full of rests which results.

Once I have entered your notes I use beaming to indicate rhythmic grouping (the flow of chant is based on the difference between 2 and 3 note groupings. I then use slurs to indicate melismas.

HTH

If you need further advice, come back here.
