I would recommend to use the predefined macros #left #right and #center For example: \override LyricText #'self-alignment-X = #left

Thanks, that worked perfectly. Much better than my s4._" " spacing.
I assume that -1 is text starts at note (left justified)
0 is text centered on note
+1 is text ends at note (right justified)
(Perhaps only the sign matters)

Lloyd,
I'm not sure if this the official way to solve your problem. There used to be an example of lyric alignment on the website, but I can't seem to find it.
Try this around each line:
\override LyricText #'self-alignment-X = #-1 In_peace,_let_us \override LyricText #'self-alignment-X = #0 pray to the Lord.
