By the Tree is a two-time Dove Award-winning contemporary Christian rock group.
By the Tree was founded in Weatherford, Texas in 1997 by Chuck Dennie and Bala Boyd.
As with most aspiring musical groups, By the Tree got their start playing a series of small venues — predominantly churches — throughout the southern and southwestern United States. Their near-constant touring cultivated a sizeable fan base.
In 1999 they released two independent, self-produced CDs, which they sold at their concerts. By 2001, these two CDs had sold a combined 30,000 units, which more than recouped their production costs, and additionally brought them to the attention of the Gospel music industry.
The band eventually signed with Fervent Records, part of the BMG music publishing company. Their first national U.S. commercial recording was Invade My Soul. The album charted in the Billboard Top 40 in the Contemporary Christian and Independent categories. The album eventually went on to win two Dove Awards: The album itself won Best Modern Rock/Alternative Album, and the album's title track won Best Recorded Song.
Sacred oak tree standing tall
What have you to say
I will listen with my heart
Speak to me this day.
Teach me of your strength and courage
To stand proud and tall
But to humbly give completely
Teach me most of all.
I came to you when I was weak
These were the words I prayed
You took me in your warm embrace
There to always stay
My heart did yearn, so I returned
To find that you were gone
But in my heart I heard you whisper
"You must carry on"
"I give to you my life", you said...
"The strength and courage too
The lessons of complete surrender
These I give to you."
"Take them now, for I am with you
There's work that must be done
In the healing of our mother
You and I are one"
