Thanks for the comment.
First, this ...Hi Anonymous. Thanks for the comment.<br />First, this is off topic for this cliche. Second, I use the cliches as I find them, and this use is how I found it. Further research shows multiple versions exist, although the original appears to be "...those who wait." Third, it is not uncommon to use the nominative "he" rather than the objective "him" in a construction such as this (see Merriam Wesbster's English Usage under "it's me" and "who, whom 1".) Had this been a simple statement like "good things come to him" it would be an easy case, but it isn't. Thus, I'm going to leave it as is. I can see why, if you were writing this blog, you would be tempted to change it, however.
