To get more space, add the following line to your \paper{} block.

between-system-space = 6\cm

(This is described in the Notation Reference section 4.4.2 Vertical spacing
between systems)

I'd also recommend adding

indent = 0

to your \paper{} block; I think it's much more appealing for this type of
layout.

To get more space at the top, you could add some title block elements as
" ", which won't show but will take up space.  For example, you could add
(in your \header{} block):

     title = " "
     subtitle = " "
     composer = " "
     arranger = " "


HTH,

Carl

P.S.  Have you tried looking in the manual for these things?  If you use the
2.11 documentation, all of these are very easy to find in the Notation
Reference.
