A simple test:
In WinFin 2004 I entered a few measures of verse one as "one one one one" and verse two as "two two two two." I then click assigned them. I then went into "Edit Lyrics" and cut (Ctrl-x) and pasted (Ctrl-c) verse one lyrics into verse two and verse two lyrics into verse one. The changes took effect when I exited the "Edit Lyrics" dialog box.
When I finished, verse one had the "two two two two" and verse two had the "one one one one." Based on this simple three measure test, I believe that you can change yours also. However, I would make a backup copy of the file before trying it.
You had previously assigned both verses, though. So you were in effect editing the lyrics when you did the swapping of the lyrics between the two verses.
He hasn't assigned any verse 4 lyrics yet, though, so once he cuts them from verse 5, they'll be removed from the score.
Try your test by entering your test lyrics into verse 1 and verse 3, but use the same words. Then cut/paste from verse 3 into verse 2 (more similar to his situation) and see what happens.
