Of course you can fool LilyPond into beleiving that two words should
be treated like a single syllable. Either enclose them within double quotes:
"two words"
or use the fact the a single underline is printed like a space:
two_words

Hi Stephen!
I compiled your piece and the only workaround I can see for what you want
is to type "host-of" to get those two words on the same note -- lily
thinks a hyphen is simply part of a word (as opposed to <spc> dbl-hyphen
<spc> or *underscore* Does this help?
It works but its not ideal. If indeed lilypond is trying to engrave
music in the right way then I should not need a hyphen to make it put
two words attached to a half note.
Does anyone have an idea as to why I cannot assign two words of lyrics
to a half note?
