You can use \concat { … }, a construction also useful for
concatenating strings with no space inserted in between.
BTW I wouldn't write
"liest""blooming rose,"
but
"liest" "blooming rose,"
instead. (Omitting whitespace between items will eventually trip you up.)

\markup {
\column {
\line { "See, the" \concat { "love" \undertie "liest" } "blooming rose," }
" Alleluia!"
"From the branch of Jesse grows,"
" Alleluia!"
}
}
