Vertically centering lyrics between two staves?

It is going on 8 years now I've been typesetting hymns in Lilypond, and one thing is still very irritating. For many hymns, you have 3 or 4 verses. And you have a refrain/chorus. It is standard hymn practice to vertically center the chorus between two staves. Yes, it is easy to add the chorus t

Thank you Carl. Interesting example. For the hymns I do, that might work for the first couple bars, but then I'll have to predict where the linebreak will be and revert it at that point. I'm using a template system to auto-generate the lilypond code, so having to insert a counter-acting command

Another problem with that snippet is the amount to drop. With a good centering command, it is centered. But if I alter the font size, etc, the amount of raising and dropping needed to center the lyrics will alter. How can I predict that without a lot of kludgy code? Again, I'm generating lilypo
