Remove the repeat and volta.

\score {
  \relative c'' {
    c1 | c1 | c1 | c1 \bar ":|"
    \once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'break-visibility = 
#begin-of-line-invisible
    \once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'self-alignment-X = #RIGHT
    \once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'direction = #DOWN
    \mark \markup { \small \bold \italic "Repeat four times"}
  }
}


I put in the extra bars just to show you a more realistic spacing.

If you want to put it above the staff then you just change

\once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'direction = #DOWN

to

\once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'direction = #UP

Hope this helps.
