"Almighty Father, heaven and earth" is an offertory hymn written by Edward Arthur Dayman. It was first published in the Sarum Hymnal (1868, No. 292). In its original form, it comprised a two-stanza general heading, two four-stanza parts, a two-stanza general ending, and a doxology.

In The Hymnary (1872, No. 522), the text was reorganized into a single condensed hymn combining the general heading, Part I, the first stanza of the general ending, and a doxology.
