Thank you Mats for pointing me in the right direction!

For those who care, the following code will produce the desired(as pictured
in previous post) results:


leftbrace = \markup {\override #'(font-encoding . fetaBraces) \lookup
#"brace175" }
rightbrace = \markup {\rotate #3.14 \leftbrace }
\relative c' {
        \new Staff <<
                \key es \major
                \time 4/4
                {
                        c4 c c c
                        r d d d 
                        f2 f
                }
                \addlyrics {
                        \set stanza = "1. "
                        This is verse one. __
                        \override LyricText #'Y-offset = #-2            %Move 
Lyrics down
                        \override LyricHyphen #'Y-offset = #-2          %Move 
Lyric Hyphens down
                        \override LyricExtender #'Y-offset = #-2        %Move 
Lyric Extenders down (Is
there one property for all 3?)
                        \once\override LyricText #'self-alignment-X = #RIGHT
                        \markup{\rightbrace "         This" }           %Line 
is Right-Aligned so the
curly brace is right after the verses
                        is the __ chor -- us.
                }
                \addlyrics {
                        \set stanza = "2. "
                        This is verse two. __
                        \override LyricText #'transparent = ##t "."     
%Required to end the __ at
the proper place
                }
        >>
}
