"Believe" is a 2004 song from the Christmas-themed performance capture film The Polar Express. The words and music were written by Glen Ballard and Alan Silvestri, and the song was performed by Josh Groban. The song is included on the film soundtrack. The song is included on the 2011 album Heavenly Christmas performed by Jackie Evancho.

The songwriters received a Grammy Award in the category Best Song Written for a Motion Picture, Television or Other Visual Media at the ceremony held in February 2006. "Believe" was also nominated for Best Original Song at the 77th Academy Awards in February 2005, with Groban and Beyoncé Knowles performing the song during the awards broadcast. The Oscar nod followed a Golden Globe nomination in the same category at the 62nd Golden Globe Awards.

The song "bubbled under" the Billboard Hot 100 chart in late 2004 and early 2005, reaching a peak position of #112. However, on the Billboard Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks chart, the song spent five weeks at the summit. This was Groban's fourth song to top the AC chart, following "To Where You Are" and "O Holy Night" in 2002 and "You Raise Me Up" earlier the same year.
