William Steffe (c.1830– c.1890), born in South Carolina, was a Philadelphia bookkeeper and insurance agent who is credited with collecting and editing the musical tune for a camp-meeting song with the traditional "Glory Hallelujah" refrain, in about 1856.
It opened with
"Say, brothers, will you meet us / on Canaan's happy shore?"
The tune became widely known.
