Character Songs
I have chosen these additional songs to represent Olaf because they both sing of the concept of unshakable, bright faith, literally and figuratively. As a character, he shows us what can happen when you have "faith of the heart"; you can quite literally "go light your world."

Faith of the Heart (Star Trek: Enterprise Theme) - Russel Watson
Lyrics
It's been a long road
Getting from there to here
It's been a long time
But my time is finally near
And I can feel the change in the wind right now
Nothing's in my way
And they're not gonna hold me down no more
No, they're not gonna hold me down
[Chorus] 'Cause I've got faith of the heart
I'm going where my heart will take me
I've got faith to believe
I can do anything
I've got strength of the soul
And no one's gonna bend or break me
I can reach any star
I've got faith
I've got faith, faith of the heart
It's been a long night
Trying to find my way
Been through the darkness
Now I finally have my day
And I will see my dream come alive at last
I will touch the sky
And they're not gonna hold me down no more
No, they're not gonna change my mind
[Chorus]
I've known the wind so cold, I've seen the darkest days
But now the winds I feel, are only winds of change
I've been through the fire and I've been through the rain
But I'll be fine
[Chorus x2]
It's been a long road...
Go Light Your World - Chris Rice
Lyrics
There is a candle in every soul
Some brightly burning, some dark and cold
And there is a spirit who brings a fire
Ignites a candle and makes his home.
[Chorus:] Carry your candle, and run to the darkness
Seek out the helpless, confused and torn
And hold out your candle for all to see it
Take your candle, and go light your world;
Take your candle, and go light your world.
Frustrated brother, see how he's tried to
Light his own candle some other way;
See now your sister, she's been robbed and lied to
Still holds a candle without a flame.
So carry your candle, and run to the darkness
Seek out the lonely, the tired and worn
And hold out your candle for all to see it
Take your candle, and go light your world;
Take your candle, and go light your world
'Cause we are a family whose hearts are blazing,
So let's raise our candles and light up the sky
Praying to our Father, in the name of Jesus,
Make us a beacon in darkest times!
Carry your candle, and run to the darkness
Seek out the helpless, deceived and poor
Hold out your candle for all to see it
Take your candle, and go light your world;
Take your candle, and go light your world
Carry your candle, run to the darkness
Seek out the helpless, confused and torn
Hold out your candle for all to see it
Take your candle, and go light your world!
Take your candle, and go light your world!
Take your candle...and go light your world.
