Merry Christmas One-Liners

Do any of you struggle over what to post on your social media during major holidays?

The typical "Merry Christmas!" seems too mainstream and eye roll-worthy. Not acknowledging the holiday makes you seem careless. What's one supposed to do?! History hasn't set a precedent for Christmas wishes in 140 characters or less.

Despite many "aha" moments about my Christmas Day status update, it's December 25 and a decision hasn't been made.

So here are my Christmas one-liners in less than 140 characters this year. This counts as posting Christmas wishes on social media, right?

"sing out with joy for the brave little boy who was god but made himself nothing for he gave up his pride and he came here to die like a man."

"go tell it on the mountain that jesus christ is born!"

"for unto us a child is born..."

"yea, lord, we greet thee, born this happy morning! oh come, let us adore him, christ the lord."

"and wild and sweet the words repeat of peace on earth, good will to men."

"with the angelic host proclaim, 'christ is born in bethlehem!' hark! the herald angels sing, 'glory to the newborn king!'"

"behold the lamb of god, the life and light of men."

"light and life to all he brings, risen with healing in his wings."

"the hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight."

"joy to the world, the lord is come."

"where meek souls will receive him still, the dear christ enters in."

"oh rest beside the weary road and hear the angels sing!"

"then let us all with one accord sing praises to our heavenly lord!"

"all glory be to god on high and to the earth be peace! goodwill henceforth from god to man begin and never cease!"

Merry Christmas, y'all. I mean it.
