Christian worship group Mark Ferguson Band has released its second album, Hidden.

The Irish band, founded in 2007, released the album on June 10 and hosted an official launch in St Marks Parish, Armagh, on June 18.

"I am very excited about this album," said Ferguson, one of the band members. "The songs come from a very real experience of life with all its ups and downs. There are strong themes of questioning God, doubts of faith, trusting him, healing and looking towards the world beyond this life."

Mark Ferguson Band is made up of Ferguson on vocals, guitar and keys, Jimbo Donaldson on guitar, Timothy Duke on bass and Matt Duke on drums and midi.

They have played across Ireland in various worship settings throughout their near decade of music together. Supporters have said: "God has continued to unite, nurture and use them to his glory".

Here's a video sampling the tracks from the new album – take a listen:

The group has also released a video of a live recording of one of the new album's tracks, called "I am yours":
