I would suggest using \skip where the voice has the same lyrics as the other
parts - so the soprano lyrics will start with a number of \skip entries and
then switch to the words. If you need to save time typing, you can use
\repeat unfold 2 { \skip1 }
and change the 2 to whatever number of skips you want.

Subject: Changing position of Lyrics
HI: I wonder if someone could help me with this.
All the examples I see in the documentation refers to Lyrics either above or
below the staves. There are SATB pieces where for example the first part
consists only of Soprano, then after a few measures the Alto comes in,then all
four parts etc. When there is only the soprano, the lyrics are between the two
staves, but the moment all four parts come in the soprano lyrics goes above the
top staff . I am having a diffcult time trying to change the position of the
Lyrics ( I am using variables for lyrics) Could somebody suggest how to change
the position of Lyrics at will?
Thank you.
