If you look at the example at the end of section 2.1.3 in the Notation 
Reference,
and add the following to the end, it will add a centered sixth verse.  You
should be able to work out from this what you need to do.  Here's the
extra verse - make sure you get fill-line (which centres a single argument)
and line (which makes a single argument from two) right!

\markup {
  \fill-line {
    \line {
      \bold "6."
      \column {
        "This is verse six."
        "It has two lines."
      }
    }
  }
}
