Just wonderful. When you have several verses, you even may do :

\new Voice { \melody }
\addlyrics { \wordsA }
\addlyrics { \wordsB }

textA = #(lyrics->text wordsA)
textB = #(lyrics->text wordsB)

\markup{ Verse 1. }
#(markup* (make-line-markup textA))

\markup { Verse 2.}
#(markup* (make-line-markup textB))


for those who don't read music!

Thank you Marc.

Cheers,
