First, dynamics are entered _behind_ the event they are supposed to attach to, not before. Second, if you want a context to engrave dynamics, it needs the respective engravers. Try
\layout { \context { \Lyrics \consists "Dynamic_engraver" \consists "Dynamic_align_engraver" } } \score { << \new Staff \context Voice = tune {\repeat volta 2 { c c c c }} \new Lyrics \lyricsto tune { \set stanza = "1." get\mp \cresc lou -- der here \f } \new Lyrics \lyricsto tune { \set stanza = "2." this\ff is very loud } >> }
