ROCKINGHAM CO., VA'. JOSEPH FUNK'S SONS, BOOK PRINTERS AND BINDERS, COPY-RIGHT SECURED ACCORDING TO LAW. PREFACE.

The Compiler, in preparing " The Song-Crowned King" to be sent forth among his friends in the Singing School, the Happy Home, the Choir, and elsewhere, has been induced to do so in the hope that it will be found suitable to their tastes, instructive to their minds, and purifying to their hearts. The music it contains has been selected with special reference to the wants of the Singing Class, the Fireside, and the Revival. In the Singing-School Department will be found, for the most part, only such pieces as are suitable for class practice. Pure, chaste in their sentiment, but with nothing devotional. They are of an attractive character, interesting for practice, and we think unexceptionable. The Happy-Home Department contains only such gems of song as are appropriate for the home circle. This is the first book ever published which contains this feature. The want of just such a department in our music books has been felt by every family in the land, in which there is a love of song.

In the Choral Department will be found many of the grand old chorals which have been sung for hundreds of years by the Zion Traveler. Such music as must live while there are Christian tongues to sing, or hearts to feel a dying Savior's love. 4 PREFACE.

In the Revival and Sabbath-School Department, there will be found many melodies which will alike be pleasing and productive of good. The selections have been made from the best European and American authors; a great part of them from the German. The original music, of which there is considerable, is submitted to the public, which rarely, if ever, fails to pronounce correct judgment upon the productions of native au- thors. And just here the Compiler would express his thanks for valuable assistance rendered him by J. Smith, Sr., and other friends in the profession. In the preparation of this book, from an ardent love of the cause of Vocal music, and a desire of becoming useful, the Compiler has given his best energies, hoping it may be found worthy a place in the homes of those, with whose destinies his own has ever been linked.

Thus the learner will see that the pointed whole note equals four half notes or four quarters ; in Triple Time three half three half notes in length ; the pointed half note equals three notes, three quarters, or three eighths, and in Compound Time, quarters in length ; the pointed quarter equals three eighths in six quarters or six eighth notes. length, etc. §21.

As a general thing where we have an ascending series THE SINGING SCHOOL. 11 of tones in a piece of music, the voice should increase in volume, in transposing the key to this letter, F, C, G and D sharp. and where a descending series occurs the reverse is generally a safe rule for expression. § 37. Key of F.—The place of disagreement, when the scale is transposed to F, is between the 3d and 4th of the scale. To correct this it is found necessary to flat B.

2 And yet it doth grieve me to wake thee my dearest, But with remorse that avails not I mourn tlVee now ;

The pangs of thy desolate mother to see Forsaken, and friendless, as soon thou wilt be,

Thou wilt weep when the clank of my cold chains thou hearest, In a world, if they cannot betray, that will scorn thee, And none but the guilty should weep over me. Avenging the guilt of thy mother on thee. And yet I must wake thee, and whilst thou art weeping,

To calm thee I'll stifle my tears for a while; 4 And when the dark thought of my fate shall awaken Thou smilest in thy dreams whilst thus placidly sleeping, The deep blush of shame on thy innocent cheek;

And O I how it wounds me to gaze on thy smiles. When by all but the God of the orphan forsaken, A home, and a father in vain thou wilt seek.

3 Alas my sweet babe, with what pride I had prest thee, I know that the base world will seek to deceive thee, To the bosom that throbs with terror and shame, With falsehood like that which thy mother beguil'd now ;

If the pure tie of virtue's affection had blest thee, Deserted, and helpless, with whom can I leave thee

And hail'd thee the heir of thy father's high name, O God I of the fatherless, pity my child ! h ~^ !

WE HAVE ANOTHER HOME. DAWN, DEW, AND YOUTH. WHILE MY REDEEMER'S NEAR.

1 Now o'er earth's smiling face, 1 Sweet is the dawn of day, 1 While my Redeemer's near, Our eyes delighted roam, When light just streaks the sky; My Shepherd and my Guide,

But this is not our dwelling-place, When shades and darkness pass away, I hid farewell to every fear, We have another home. • And morning beams are nigh. My wants are all supplied.

2 We look beyond this sphere, 2 But sweeter, far, the dawn 2 To ever fragrant meads bright pure Of piety in youth Where rich abundance grows, To one more and ; Where sin can never cause a tear, When doubt and darkness are withdrawn, II i* gracious hand indulgent had.-, Nor pain the heart endure. Before the light of truth. And guards my sweet repose.

3 Where all we ever loved 3 Sweet is the early dew, 3 Dear Shepherd, if I stray, shall meet, Which gilds the mountain tops, My wand'ring feet restore In happiness ; Their radiant powers with glory crown'ii And decks each plant and flow'r we view And guard rac with thy watchful eye Bending at Jesus' feet. With pearly, glittering drops. And let me rove no more. ! HAPPY-HOME B1PARTUIIT

Me nearer to my God. And thus fulfill his word,

To wisdom's better way. And joy from heart to heart!

3 Such goodness. Lord, and constant care, 3 Teach me in every various scene 3 Love is the golden chain that binds A life can ne'er repay To keep my end in sight: The happy souls above ; But may it be my daily prayer And while I tread life's mazy track, And he's an heir of heaven that finds To love thee and obey. Let wisdom guide me right. His bosom glow with love. r : — CHORAL BIPAETfflEIT

2 O, young sol-diers, are you wea-ry, Of the troubles of the way ? Does your strength begin to fail you, And your vig - or to de - cay '.' 3 Je - sus, Je-sus will go with you—He will lead you to his throne, He who dyed his garments fur you, And the winepress trod alone!

4 Round him are ten thousand an-gels, Rea-dy to o - bey command, They are always hov'ring round you, Till you reach the heav'nly land. 5 There on ilow'iy hills of pleas-ure, In the fields of end-less rest, Love and joy and peace shall ev-er Reign and triumph in your breast.

1 Sweet the time, exceeding sweet, When the saints to-geth-er meet, When the Savior is the theme, When they join to sing of him:

2 Sing we then e - ter - nal love, Such as did the Fa-ther move; He be-held the world undone, Lov'd the world and gave his Son.

- 3 Sing the Son's a maz-ing love ; How he left the realms a-bove, Took our nature and our place, Lived and died to save our race. X 1 i Hibhz I »^r~r—si—i—si—h ^TJi ~T— th—g— 9 h [— pi qizi_

T" revive the strong, confirm the weak, That they may love and worship thee, And after sinners call. And dwell upon thy charms. 10 How often you have looked for me, 5 My brother preachers, fare you well, And ofttimes seen me come Your fellowship I love 8 My loving wife, my bosom friend, But now I ; must depart from thee : In time no more I shall you see, The object of my love, And never more return. But soon we'll meet above. The time's been sweet I've spent with you, My dear and harmless dove. 6 My little children, near my heart, 11 For I can never come to thee ; And nature seems to bind, Let this not grieve your heart, It grieves me sorely to depart, 9 My loving wife, dont grieve for me, For you will shortly come to me,

And leave you all behind. Neither lament nor mourn ; Where we shall never part. ;
