George Whitefield
1714-1770

Welcome to

The George Whitefield Homepage

Though long by following multitudes admired,
No party for himself he e'er desired;
His one desire to make the Saviour known,
To magnify the name of Christ alone:
If others strove who should the greatest be,
No lover of preeminence was he,
Nor envied those his Lord vouchsafed to bless,
But joyed in theirs as in his own success.

Charles Wesley
An Elegy on the Late Rev. George Whitefield
