I thought that this could be achieved with context, but this isn’t
working:

Know that what you provided was not a complete minimal working example,
as it did not show how you were assembling the variables into a \score.
This leaves folks on the list having to guess the remainder, and it
might be possible the error is not in the code that you show. Also, a
\version statement is crucial as we need to know which version you are
using. In the future, please ensure the MWE provide compiles on its
own.
The issue you are facing is most likely that LilyPond is not able to
keep the original "verse" context alive for the duration of the
intervening notes. Please review the following section [1] in the
Notation Reference for more information.

Here is an example of a few techniques that ensure a named Voice context
remains alive:
%%%%
\version "2.19.83"
\score {
<<
\new Staff {
\time 3/4
\new Voice = "a" { a'2. }
% Sequential:
\new Voice = "b" { b'4 \new Voice { g'8[ 8] } b'4 }
% Parallel:
<<
\new Voice = "c" { c''4 s c'' }
\new Voice { s4 g'8 8 s }
>>
% Parallel within Sequential:
{
\new Voice = "d" { d''4 }
<<
\context Voice = "d" { s4 }
\new Voice { g'8[ 8] }
>>
\context Voice = "d" { d''4 }
}
% Sequential within Parallel:
<<
\new Voice = "e" { s2. }
{
\context Voice = "e" { e''4 }
\new Voice { g'8[ 8] }
\context Voice = "e" { e''4 }
}
>>
}
\new Lyrics <<
\lyricsto "a" { a }
\lyricsto "b" { b b }
\lyricsto "c" { c c }
\lyricsto "d" { d d }
\lyricsto "e" { e e }
>>
>>
}
