Gladwin Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9520 First Line: Wait! patiently wait, God never is late Lyrics: 1 Wait! patiently wait, God never is late: Thy budding plans are in Thy Father’s holding, And only wait His grand divine unfolding; Then wait, wait, patiently wait. 2 Trust! hopefully trust! That God will adjust Thy tangled life: And from its dark concealings Will bring His will in all its bright revealings; Then trust, trust, hopefully trust. 3 Rest! peacefully rest!

1846 - 1945 Person Name: George Coles Stebbins Composer of "[Wait! patiently wait, God never is late]" in The Cyber Hymnal Stebbins studied music in Buffalo and Rochester, New York, then became a singing teacher. Around 1869, he moved to Chicago, Illinois, to join the Lyon and Healy Music Company. He also became the music director at the First Baptist Church in Chicago. It was in Chicago that he met the leaders in the Gospel music field, such as George Root, Philip Bliss, & Ira Sankey. At age 28, Stebbins moved to Boston, Massachusetts, where he became music director at the Claredon Street Baptist Church; the pastor there was Adoniram Gordon. Two years later, Stebbins became music director at Tremont Temple in Boston. Shortly thereafter, he became involved in evangelism campaigns with Moody and others. Around 1900, Stebbins spent a year as an evangelist in India, Egypt, Italy, Palestine, France and England. (www.hymntime.com/tch)
