I'd say the van der Hoeven version appears to be a recent revision. I was about to say it appeared to be an attempt to "secularize" the lyrics, but it's more an attempt to put an antireligious "spin" to it. I don't think this verse is what you would call traditional, no matter what you think of sentiments expressed:

We're bound together by a heavy chain
And on every link is religion's name
