Yes - look at the rest of the verses - it doesn't fit. (not saying I don't
like it I do; but it's not part of that hymn - most sources don't include
it with JMHH either but if you look at the text, it does go with it).
When we've been there has become a bit of a "wandering refrain," used
when you are singing in common meter and need another verse - everyone
knows it.
