Hi, without a doubt it is my bad, but while I've spend quite some time 
looking for this in the documentation, I didn't come across it.

Looked, among a lot of other places, in

https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.21/Documentation/notation/common-notation-for-vocal-music

https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.21/Documentation/notation/songs

So I was close....

Thanks,
