Can't figure out how to put spacers in lyrics

Anybody know how to put blank spaces (rests) in lyrics? I accidentally discovered that putting three underscores in a row skips over a note in the lyrics, but I don't want to have to put in hundreds of these sequences just to get to the part in my score that I want to add lyrics to. Thanks, C

More lyrics-related questions

In the piece I'm working on there are some eighth notes that have lyrics underneath them. For notes that have longer words under them, more space is created to accommodate the longer word. This makes the distance between the notes uneven and doesn't look as good, in my opinion. Is there a wa

Stems longer when overriding defaults

I've noticed that when I force a part's stems to go the other way using \stemDown or \stemUp, the stems are quite a bit longer than the default stems that are being used for automatically stemmed notes. This creates a slight but noticeable aberration to the overall look and feel of a score. I
