You can create Staff 7. like this:

\new Staff \with {
  instrumentName = "8."
}
<<
  \clef "treble_8"
  \key c \minor
  \time 3/4
  \partial 4
  <<
    { \new Voice \voiceOne \descant }
    { \new Voice \voiceTwo \melody }
    { \new Voice \voiceTwo \altMelody }
  >>
>>

Merry Christmas to all of you,
Michael
