Something like this?

lyricsA = \lyricmode { First set of words; }
lyricsB = \lyricmode { se -- cond set of words. }

<<
  \new Staff {
    \relative {
      c'2 d4 e | f1 |
      g4 f e d| c1 |
    }
    \addlyrics { \lyricsA \lyricsB }
  }
  \new Staff {
    R1*4 |
  }
>>

Hope that helps!
Kieren.
