It's a spacer rest, see "2.16 Single staff polyphony" in the Tutorial.
The purpose here is to keep the context "alive" until the actual
lyrics begins.

Hello users,
I am still struggling to learn the syntax for scores with lyrics. In the manual (as well as in other examples) I have seen this in the templates for vocal ensembles:
\context Lyrics = sopranos { s1 }
What does the *{ s1 }* stand for? What is its use? Best regards, Eduardo
