It was written by American Roman Catholic composers and liturgical musicians Steve Angrisano, Sarah Hart, Jesse Manibusan, and is inspired by the scriptures of Easter Sunday - but appropriate for the entire Easter season.
It was first released by OCP under the Spirit in Song label in 2013, in Steve Angrisano's "A New Day" collection. A Spanish-language version, Aleluya! Vive el Amor, has since been released with Ivan Diaz.
The song is set to an unnamed tune. This has 1 6/8 time signature. In the key of Eb, the first few notes are GGG GFF FEE E.

Alleluia! Love is alive;
Conquered the grave and defeated the night.
Alleluia! Love is alive!
The Son has arisen for all.
You people sing alleluia!
2 People of God, let your fear fall away.
... It is true! It is true! He is alive!
3 People of God now rejoicing in Christ,
.....He is Lord! He is Lord! He is alive!
