THE FLOWERS COLLECTION 
 
 rilF/ Compiler of the following Songs aue 
 Hymns has been induced to have a second edi- 
 tion of his Songs and Hymns publislied, for se- 
 veral reasorjs, viz. — First, because of the many 
 applications made to him, and to the book-sel- 
 lers in the City of Raleigh, for theju. Second- 
 ly, because of the deficiency the author has dis.- 
 covered among the congregations he h^s had the 
 honor to attend for several yeai's in Wake Coun,- 
 ty, and at the Associations in this State, of the 
 brethren ant! friends not having song-books alike; 
 and therefore, of; en perplexed and confused 
 wl.ile singing, which makes it painful to the 
 heitrers, and un« difying to themselves. Third- 
 ly, because he has reason to believe that many 
 of the Songs in this selection have been blessed 
 to the comforting of mourning souU, in the for- 
 mer a'ld latter revivals of Religion, and have 
 edified the hearts of many christians. Fourthly, 
 because he is desirous to promote and encourage 
 the singing of Spii'itual Song-, more and more, 
 among his brethren and sisters in this State ^ 
 and therefore, he has carefu'ly revised arid cor- 
 rected his hvs* edition of Songs and Hymns, and 
 has coMciuded to have nearly all the <ame Songs 
 J Hyvnns put in this second edition that were 
 hi the first, with the addition of a few choice 
 
 - that were "^^^^^^^'^ ^^^^^ ^^^^^ "^^^ 
 
nixrce v. i.:.. .jongs andllyrnns in tlic lii-si eui- 
 f;o!) : that those who are in possession of the 
 ■Vist, mav/sing; in acconi.incc with those who 
 
 IV obfain the seeond ciliiion. 
 
 The author inlbrms his friends, that f.hose who 
 mny become the purchasers of <his edition, will 
 Tind tl^eiTii^elves in posscf^sion of ab^ut two hun- 
 dred and twenty-four choice Sons^s^ adapted to 
 the Church of Christ, in all hf'r various ^itu^i- 
 lioiis, W'Hiie pa-fsiiig through this world : and 
 about sixtj-four choice Hynins^, adapted to pub- 
 lic and private worship ; and, a short form 
 of matrimony, for the accommodation of Minis- 
 ters and Magistrates. The reason why he hn- 
 Dot put in more Tlymng is, because he think 
 Ihat Watts -s Psalms and Hymns arc suflicieo., 
 witJ^out adding to, or dimjni«;hing from them ; 
 and h:i^, from tijc first, ilesigned that his book

 Tlte way he has shewn you, will prove to be

 shewn ; 
 
 They ptibiish'd the gospel, and w licn 'twas

 They buried in baptism all that hcliev'd. 
 Has Jesus the Saviour done great things for 
 you ? 
 
 Then take up your crosses and follow him too. 
 
 L 0 Christians, your Jesus w ill shortly appear, 
 To meet all his soldiers who love him sincere; 
 Then let us be marcliing to meet him my

 Behold, into Jortlan the Saviour descends ! 
 And as he arose from the wafery tomb. 
 The Father approv'd of w hat Jesus had done !

 Be steadfastly looking to Jesus your Lord ; 
 If troubles and trials, and crosses you bear,

 \. THE tree of life my soul hath seen 
 Laden with fruit, a!id always green, 
 The trees of nature fruitless be, 
 Compared with Christ, the apple tree. 
 
 This beauty doth all things excel ; 
 By fairh I know, but ne-er can tell 
 1'he glory wliich I now can s-ee 
 In Jesus Christ the apple tree^ 
 
THE FAREWELL. 
 
 For happiness I long have sought, 
 \iid pleasure dearly I have bought 5 
 I miss-ci for all, but now \ see 
 
 Tis found in Christ the apple tree, 
 
 Pm wearied with mj former toil ; 
 Here i shall sit and rest, awhile ; 
 iTuder tiie shadow I will be 
 Of Jesus Christ, the apple tree. 
 
 With ^Teat deiight V]\ make my stay ; 
 There's none shall friglit my ^oul awd}> 
 Among the sons of men I see 
 There's none like Christ tije apple tree. 
 
 I'll sit and eat this fruit divine ; 
 It chc^irs my heart like s'piritual wine ; 
 And now this fruit is sweet to me, 
 T;.;it grows on Christ tlie apple tree.

 ;It keeps my dyivig faith a^ive j 
 I Which mak'^s my soul h) aste t» be
