You want to add: versetwo = \lyricmode { % Second line of words here } and then later, where you have: \new Staff { \melody } \addlyrics { \verse } you want: \new Staff { \melody } \addlyrics { \verse } \addlyrics { \versetwo } Note that the lyrics are not part of the staff, but are a separate line in themselves so you can have as many of them as you want.
