I'm not sure, but I guess Garrett wants the lyrics in a sequential line so
I'd put

\score {
  <<
    \new Staff=top {
      <<
        \new Voice = sopVerse  \sopVerse
        \new Voice = altoVerse \altoVerse
      >>
      <<
        \new Voice = sopChorus  \sopChorus
        \new Voice = altoChorus \altoChorus
      >>
    }
    \new     Lyrics =lyrics \lyricsto sopVerse  { one two three }
    \context Lyrics =lyrics \lyricsto sopChorus { four five six } % Or \new
... to have the lyrics on different lines
  >>
}
