I actually change voices to voice when singing because there is one too many syllables there and then sweet songs works

Funny, that's what Genie said, but when I cut the syllable from the lyrics, the words stop one note before the dots on the staff do...

If you've designated a staff to have lyrics, Noteworthy Composer simply won't put a note on the staff unless there is a syllable (or pause symbol) to go with it. So I know, in terms of simple counting, at least, that

"Raise all your voices, let sweet songs fill the air"

in the last verse has exactly the same number of syllables as

"Raise all your voices, fill the air with sweet song"

in the other three verses. Why do you suppose it sounds like there is one more? Perhaps what the ear is hearing is not the number of syllables in a line, but the number of stressed syllables in a line?

..see what happens when you turn a song loose...

Yeah. Just like a toddler: once it finds its legs and starts running, there's no keeping up with it!
