Arvid Asplund is the singer.
The lyrics were written on November 3, 1844, by Zacharias/Zachris Topelius (1818-1898), http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zachris_Topelius
Music perhaps by Karl Collan (1828-1871).

Thanks so much for making this available.

Here are the traditional lyrics of the first verse in Swedish and an English translation:

Du är min ro
min tröst, min frid,
min himmel blid,
mitt hopp, min tro
min längtans hamn
hvart andedrag...
O bred i dag
mot mig din famn!

You are my ease
my solace, my peace
my heaven mild
my hope, my faith
my longing's harbor
each breath
O spread today
against me your embrace.

Lyrics from http://runeberg.org/topesang/a0147.html
