And you want to make a section within the one column format into two columns:

Select the text (in your case, the lines of the anthem) with the Type tool. Select the ¶ view of the Control panel on the top left of your screen, and select Split 2 from the Span Columns menu on the right.

There are several approaches to columns:

Also to column breaks:

Enter on the Numeric keypad is the shortcut for column break

Type menu > Breaks

Attach it to a style, such as a heading
