Read NR 5.1.7, give the Staff context a name and
use alignBelowContext:
\new ChoirStaff <<
\new Staff = "SopranoStaff"
\new Voice = "SopranoVoice" \relative c' { c4 d e f r1 }
\new Staff
\new Voice = "AltoVoice" \relative c' { r1 f4 e d c }
\new Lyrics \with { alignBelowContext = "SopranoStaff" }
\lyricsto "SopranoVoice" {
So -- pran -- os
\set associatedVoice = #"AltoVoice"
rule.
Al -- tos are cool.
}
