I need to put verse numbers in every line of the hymns. There are

\set stanza = "1." does it for the first line, first verse.

You can shift the short name to the right and write it bold:
\override InstrumentName #'X-offset = #4
\override InstrumentName #'font-series = #'bold

This mostly works for me, but I get nothing on the first line unless I
also include a \set stanza.
verseOne = \lyricmode {
\set stanza = #"1."
\set shortVocalName = "1."
\override InstrumentName #'X-offset = #2
\override InstrumentName #'font-series = #'bold

Am I missing something? This is being called from lilypond-book in
2.12.2 if it makes a difference, and I'm putting the commands inside
\lyricmode {}. But because of the need to use \set stanza, they look
slightly different between the first row and subsequent ones.
An option to turn this on would be greatly appreciated!
