Have you looked at the SIL Doulas font
<http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&id=DoulosSILfont>? That's what it is for. If for some reason that's no good, what about Junicode <http://www.engl.virginia.edu/OE/junicode/junicode.html>? or Everson Mono <http://www.evertype.com/emono/>? We've made suggestions.
