To increase the spacing between lyrics, set the minimum-distance property of LyricSpace.
{ c c c c \override Lyrics.LyricSpace #'minimum-distance = #1.0 c c c c } \addlyrics { longtext longtext longtext longtext longtext longtext longtext longtext }
To make this change for all lyrics in the score, set the property in the layout.
\score { \relative c' { c c c c c c c c } \addlyrics { longtext longtext longtext longtext longtext longtext longtext longtext } \layout { \context { \Lyrics \override LyricSpace #'minimum-distance = #1.0 } } }
