Oh Father What Do I Do

"Oh Father what should I do?
I love her and my love is true.
Oh Father, I don't know what more I can do.
So please help me, help me now,
Make her mine some how."
(and the Father said to him);
"Love her more, love her true,
That my son you have to do.
Show her you care, for you
really do.
Give her time to say,
I love you.
Listen as she speak softly
Hear her every word.
It shows you  mean it,
This she will see.
Trust my son
for trust is key."
(he then said to Him who spoke)
"I've heard you speak, 
of what you say,
Please give me the courage
the courage to obey."
(the Father spoke again, only to the heart):
"My child you have courage, you've had it,
from the start."
(he smiled as he heard the last part)
"Love conquers all, or have you not heard?"
