Thanks for the suggestion, that seems sensible. It doesn't seem to do
the trick, however. I now have (simplified to):

\score {
  \new ChoirStaff <<
    \new Staff = women <<
      \new Voice = "S" {
        \voiceOne << \global \Sa \Sb >>
      }
    >>
    \context Lyrics \lyricsto "S" { \womena \womenb }
    \context Lyrics \lyricsto "S" \womenc
  >>
}

But this seems to overlap the \Sa and \Sb melodic parts. It also
starts out with the \womena lyrics, then proceeds to overlap with one
syllable from \womenb, which then takes over. So it's not that close
yet.

Cheers,
