[snip detail]

If I was doing this, I'd have lyrics to the sops and the tenors, and use 
alignAboveContext for the tenor lyrics.  Where both sop and tenor are 
singing, I would use \skip in the tenor lyrics.  I think that should work. 
Shout if this isn't clear - there's info about both skip and alignAbove.. in 
the Notation Reference.
