Depends on the style music you are writing... what style are you talking about?

Bruno Mars style, like for example, the way he did for Mirror by Lil' Wayne. Just an example.Like (1)

If you are working from a poem of sorts, or prose, find the most meaningful lines (2 or 3) and pull them out as the chorus... making sure that they relate... I think you can consider the chorus, like a summary of the message overall - even if you have to write one...

A change of key or at least a chord progression that's stronger and more straightforward than the rest of the song helps. Also, it's good to make the words not zip right by, but make them stand out mostly out the downbeats so as to emphasize them rhythmically more. Something that a whole room full of people could sing at once without blurring eachother's words out much. Tiptoe and traipse through the rest of the song if you want, but for the chorus it's usually better to march or even stomp.
