------ About the song Tower Of Strength performed by Mission U.K.
This song struck me the first time I heard it when i was in Germany just a few years ago. It was featured on an 80's alternative CD. I never heard it during the 80's, but I found out that the band, Mission UK, were the remnants of an 80's favorite, Sisters of Mercy. It has since become my guiding song when I feel down. I don't know what the band's intent was when they wrote and recorded it, but it is very spiritually deep for me.
