They look to You still
Esmeralda's people (outcasts, gypsies, etc) are shunned by the people, which makes her afraid that they're shunned by God as well.
Still, she expresses how they look to God anyway, if he has given up on them or not. Feeling hopeless where no one else gives them a chance, she hopes God will forgive them and try.
