Major Daniel Webster Whittle (1840-1901) was an
American evangelist, Bible teacher and hymn writer. Through the
influence of D. L. Moody, he entered full-time evangelism and worked
with P.P. Bliss and James McGranahan. He wrote (mostly under pseudonym,
El Nathan) the words for about two hundred hymns, including "Moment
by Moment," "I Know Whom I Have Believed," and "Banner
of the Cross."
