"Beauty Has Grace" is Christian artist Jaci Velasquez's fifth studio album. It marks a departure from her previous albums in style, having been recorded in London, England with Martin Terefe (A-Ha, Ron Sexsmith, Leona Naess, KT Tunstall, etc). She co-wrote 6 of the 10 album tracks.Velasquez decided to name the album "Kensaltown", after the town and studio where she recorded and wrote the album, but the label was concerned that people would confuse "Kensaltown" with "Tinsel Town" so they changed the title to "Beauty Has Grace" which is a lyric in the song "This Love". The release date for the album was pushed back several times until it finally got to May 3rd as the final date. [http://www.crossrhythms.co.uk/articles/news/Velasquez_Delay/14016/p1/] The label also changed the track listing of the album which first featured the song "Hold On To This Moment", but it was replaced for "Reason To Believe"Critics for the album were favorable, calling Velasquez's musical change "the boldest, smartest Christian music artistic shift in recent memory. [http://www.christianmusicplanet.com/magazine/viewarticle.asp?id=394] A special edition of the album was released by Family Christian Stores which featured a bonus track, "Love Will Find You".
