Grace Notes + Lyrics

[Will Oram]

You'll have to forgive me if I ask a question answered in the manual  
or archives. I have no lyrics experience in music *or* lilypond, so  
this is new dabbling for me. I swear I searched and experimented  
before I wrote this message.

I wish to have one measure as so in lily 2.6.3: (I'm writing it  
vertically in case formatting is crippled when viewing):

g4              Land:
\grace bflat8
a8              Er --
a               de,
r4
f8              und
g               die

lilypond tends to put 'Er --' on the grace note, which naturally  
kills the alignment for the rest of the music. How do I put empty  
space on the grace value? I tried ignoreMelisma but I was basically  
guessing in my placement of \set and \unset.

Best,

will is the everyman
