I Choose You is the seventh studio album by the Christian female vocal group Point of Grace, released on October 12, 2004 by Word/Curb/Warner Bros. Records. Point of Grace worked with four producers on this album: David Zaffiro, Wayne Kirkpatrick, Brent Bourgeois, and Mark Hammond.
I Choose You is the first album to feature new member Leigh Cappillino, who replaced founding member Terry Jones. It is also the first full-length album of new material since 2001's Free to Fly and is more raw and less glossy than on previous efforts. Bourgeois, who produced the song "Forever On and On" that the women participated on the compilation project album Streams, produced two tracks and Hammond produced the title track. The title song and "Who Am I?" were Top 10 hits on the Billboard Christian radio charts and "Waiting in the Wings" topped Radio and Records Christian Inspo chart, giving Point of Grace their 28th number one song overall. I Choose You peaked at number 4 on the Top Christian Albums and number 85 on the Top 200 Albums charts in Billboard magazine.
Note: the track "Who Am I?" is a different recording than the song also titled "Who Am I" that is on Point of Grace's 1998 album Steady On.
