Can someone help identify this hymn

Post by Scotus »

Can someone help identify this hymn http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cfj8RoZKLU ? I tried to listen to a number of other versions, but have not been able to find another one with the same music and the composer's name.

A free score is available on IMSLP:
