Trouble with lyric alignment

I am a little bit confused about why my lyrics are not printing under
the first note in this piece.  For some reason, they are starting on the
second note.  Any clue?  Another anomaly is that not all the lyrics
printed for this line.  I want to get this cleared up before I go
farther.

lilypond 2.6.0, mandrake 10.1 



     \version "2.6.0"
     upper = \relative c' {
        \clef treble
        \key des \major
        \time 3/4
     
        \partial 4*3 << {des4} \\ {des4} >> <f des> <ges des> |  <aes
es>( <aes
        es>) <aes des> <bes des> <aes des> <ges des> << { aes2. } \\
        {es4( des c)} >>
     }
     
     lower = \relative c {
        \clef bass
        \key des \major
        \time 3/4
     
        \partial 4*3 <f des> <aes des,> <bes bes,> <c aes,>( <c
           aes>) <aes f> << {ges} \\ {ges} >>  <aes f> <bes es,> <<
           {aes2.} \\ {c,4( bes aes) } >>
     }
     
     text = \lyricmode {I want "to walk" as a child of the light
     }
     
     \score {
       \context GrandStaff <<
         \context Staff = upper {
             \context Voice = singer \upper }
         \lyricsto "singer" \new Lyrics \text
         \context Staff = lower <<
           \clef bass
           \lower
         >>
       >>
       \layout {
         \context { \GrandStaff \accepts "Lyrics" 
                    \override SpanBar #'break-visibility =
       #center-invisible }
         \context { \Lyrics \consists "Bar_engraver" }
       }
       \midi { \tempo 4=75 }
     }
