The contexts are normally printed in the order in which they are defined, so
simply moving the \new Lyrics command for the sopranos so it comes before
the \new Staff command for the joint soprano/alto staff should do it. See
the SATB vocal score template in the Notation Reference section A.4.1.

Subject: Lyrics of a Voice above the Staff of the Voice
Hello together,
I'm working on a sheet where the lyrics of the Soprano are set above its
staff
because the staff is shared with the Alto which has lyrics differing from
those
of the Soprano at some positions (which I read by using \skip).
As far as I have 4 stanzas, using markups is not a usable workaround.
Recently I got to:
\override LyricText #'extra-offset = #'(0 . 20)
But this leaves the hyphens below the Staff and only moves the text into
other
page items.
So the question is:
How do I get the lyrics above the staff of the voice they are assigned to
by
\lyricsto?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Greetings
Robert Waniek
