Lyric vertical spacing

[Villum Sejersen]

You might try the brute-force method:

\paper {

  page-count = #1

  % system-count = #4

}
I often use page-count (and \break at appropriate places) to save myself many trials.

If this does not solve the problem there are lots of other settings in the paper block to experiment with.
