I have a song which sets lyrics like this:

Which gives me this:
How can I set a wider vertical space within verses?
Try VerticalAxisGroup.nonstaff-nonstaff-spacing.padding! For example, to
do the setting once for all Lyric contexts in the score, replace your
current empty \layout{} by
\layout {
\context{
\Lyrics
\override VerticalAxisGroup.nonstaff-nonstaff-spacing.padding = #2
}
}
