A fear of tragic pasts feared imminent

You revealed the face within your face
Human,lonely,humbler than the ant
The pathos in your  eyes  made sad my gaze

The other  face,  phlegmatic, has no grace
With it ,you  appear  quite confident.
Yet you revealed to me  your  hidden face

I know now of the suffering of your days
A fear of tragic pasts  feared imminent
The pathos in your  eyes  made sad my gaze

The Lord says you’re his lamb and gives you grace.
Yet you must hide from men intolerant
You revealed the face within your face

Like Jesus, you were scourged and in disgrace
You   wandered feebly like  itinerants
The pathos in your  eyes  makes sad my  days

If God exists then would he not embrace
The lost, the lonely, even the vagrant?
You revealed the face within your face
The pathos in your  eyes  made  men seem base.
