That is exactly what the given example does. I wasn't sure whether
your situation involved stanza numbers or something else - but if your
different font is in the stanza numbers, you can use the given example
pretty much directly.

Try the commands

\override StanzaNumber #'font-name = #"Insert Name of Your Font Here"

and

\override LyricText #'font-name = #"Insert Name of Your Font Here"

in different ways and see if they can give you the desired result.

Hoping this works...
