There are a bunch of penalties which define where Gregorio prefers to break lines:
endafterbarpenalty: The end after bar penalty. Inserted by GregorioTeX after a bar. Default -200
endafterbaraltpenalty: The alternate end after bar penalty (used when there is no text under the bar). Default -200
endofelementpenalty: The end of element penalty. Inserted by GregorioTeX after each element in a score. Default -50
endofsyllablepenalty: The end of syllable penalty. Inserted by GregorioTeX after each syllable in a score. Default -50
endofwordpenalty: The end of word penalty. Inserted by GregorioTeX after each word in a score. Default -100
hyphenpenalty: The penalty inserted with a hyphen by TeX. **Note:** TeX does not insert hyphens into the score in most places because GregorioTeX makes its own decisions on inserting hyphens after syllables in lyrics. This penalty would only be used when there is a block of text long enough to trigger a line break within a syllable or similarly sized unit. Default -200
These can by changed with `\grechangecount`. A value of 10000 would prohibit a line break at that position, a value of -10000 forces the line break at that location. If you want to favor breaks at bars and disfavor them elsewhere, decrease the two bar penalties and/or increase the others.
