It is obvious that poetic techniques play a big part in music, especially in hymns and worship music. In the specific example of "
If I Stand" by Rich Mullins. In the first stanza he eludes that there is something more to the dawn, dusk, and home. I believe he is implying that God is present all throughout your life, Morning and night, he never leaves us. He also uses rhyme between room and moon to musically tie everything together. Through the whole hymn he refers to God's persistence in our lives and how he is always there.
