Q: From my library, how do I upload previous purchased songs into the cloud?

As long as the music is still available in the iTunes store, you can just delete the songs and you will be able to redownload them later as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.

I'm staring at my library, all the songs are there, but they are not making it onto my phone. Only the songs found in the cloud have been manually downloaded to my phone, all others are just sitting in my library. And again, just to repeat, they were all purchased in the iTunes Store.

Any music you purchased with that ID should be available to download from iCloud by opening the iTunes Store app, then tap More>Purchased>Music>Not on This iPhone (iPod, iPad), then tap the iCloud download symbols to download them. You can also go to Settings>Music, turn on Show All Music, then open the Music app, go to your song list and tap the iCloud download symbols next to purchased songs that are not already on your device.
You can only do this with a single ID. If you have music purchased with a different ID, they will not appear in your purchased list. Also, after download previous purchases for one ID you cannot download previous purchases from a different ID for 90 days (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627).
