Have I misunderstood something about how this technique is supposed to work?
I think you understood it correctly, but I guess what is happening here is that when you switch to the previous voice LilyPond will just align the next syllable to the next note in voice you switched to, ignoring the duration of the previous syllable.
Personally I tend to use explicit durations (no \lyricsto) in complex cases like this, but a workaround would be simply:
verseIII = \lyricmode {
Gen -- tle \set associatedVoice = "v3" and strong
\set associatedVoice = "mel"
one, "" % add an empty syllable here
Lord of our way.
}
