David Assarsson

Berndt David Assarsson (14 January 1892 – 31 December 1955) was a Swedish Catholic priest, monsignor, historical author and psalmist who resided in Helsingborg and Stockholm. He made efforts to develop Roman Catholicism in Sweden. He was born in Lund and died in Helsingborg.

Career

He wrote the book Fädernas kyrka: En programskrift (1918). In 1920 he agreed to edit the Catholic magazine Credo and served as its editor until 1937.[1]:242 In 1922 he translated John Henry Newman's "Lead, Kindly Light" to Swedish "Led, mild light." He was editor of Psalmer för kyrkoåret ("psalms for the Church") in 1937, and of the 1950 edition of the Cecilia psalm book.
