Himno Oficial del Primer Congreso Eucaristico de Filipinas

I borrowed this book from the library about the 1937 International Eucharistic Congress in Manila, Philippines. The event, the first in Asia, gathered personalities ecclesiastical and civil from all over the country, and also from Rome. Then Archbishop of Manila, the indefatigable Irishman His Excellency Michael J. O'Doherty, would lead the nation in giving thanks to the Almighty for this illustrious privilege. Attached to this post are scans of the score of the official hymn of that Congress, written in Spanish.

Do you have a complete scan of this hymn?

Dear Chiness,

Apologies, but I've lost the rest of the scans, and these are all I have left
