The bracket has to be in quotes

Ok, here are the first line of the fist verse
stanzaOneOne = \lyricmode { \set stanza = "1. {" Child, you're mine and
I love you. Lend thine ear to what I say.
stanzaOneTwo = \lyricmode { \set stanza = " " Child, I have no great --
er joy Than to have you walk in truth.
I tried it like this
stanzaOneOne = \lyricmode { \set stanza = "1. \markup{ "{"} "} Child,
you're mine and I love you. Lend thine ear to what I say. Wichi doesn't
do what it looks like it will do. 1. \markup{ becomes the name of the
verse and {"} "} ocupies the first 2 notes.
I can just do \set stanza = "1. {" except that I need to make the {
double height and move down to be in front of two llines
