I have some midi files that have lyrics; but, when I play them in MuseScore, some of the lyrics are missed.

To me it looks as if the lyrics got attached to the wrong staff, the top one, "Organ, Organ RH", rather than "B♭ Clarinet, Soprano/Lyrics", which starts at measure 6, just like the lyrics.
Which lyrics exactly are you missing?
Maybe some sylables got lost due to having notes in the latter but not the former?
So the real issue is that they just got assigned to the wrong instrument?
When I open the file in another player, like Anvil Studio, the lyrics are attached to the right track. So, I move the lyrics to the right track (Clarinet, Soprano/Lyrics) and now I have now the full lyrics showing. Now, I saved back the file to midi and then I lost the Lyrics. So, what I had to do was to save it as a Musescore file and now it is ok.
Thank you very much for your feedback.
