The purpose of SQLite is to store data, and to give it back to you
unchanged.  How the data is formatted for displaying is not the database's
concern.

It is likely that the software that you're using to display fields has an
option for automatic word wrapping, but nobody here knows what software
that is.

Just put the column names in this order in the ORDER BY clause when doing
the SQL query.  (Assuming that whatever software you're using allows you
to customize the query.)
