Here is an example, as short as I could make it:

\version "2.14.2"
\include "gregorian.ly"
\paper {
  paper-width = 28\mm
  left-margin = 0\mm
  right-margin = 0\mm
}
chant = { f' f' f' f' f' \finalis }
verba = \lyricmode { bla -- bla -- bla -- bla -- bla }
\score {
  \new Staff <<
    \new Voice = "melody" \chant
    \new Lyrics = "one" \lyricsto melody \verba
  >>
  \layout {
    \context {
      \Staff
      \remove Bar_engraver
      \remove Time_signature_engraver
    }
  }
}

For the above the first line is broken after three "bla"-s and the hyphen of the
last "bla" sticks out completely on the right.
