Words that rhyme with Grace
In phonetic terms, grace is a one-syllable anchor on a long-a that lifts the line, which softens into a fricative tail. The love-song lineage is the obvious context. What the engine returns: perfect rhymes are common for this one, no family-rhyme matches turn up, and the vowel-match pool carries the volume. Lyric-wise, the word reads as a felt-state word. Use the strict rhymes for the structural beats and let slant rhymes do the interior work.

Why grace rhymes the way it does
Grace is one-syllable, its rhyme-relevant vowel sitting on the long /eษช/, then it lets the line dissolve into a fricative. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 133 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 182, assonance 5,759, and consonance 463. That's a deep perfect column. The song can ride strict rhymes from end to end, only sliding into assonance when the line needs to surprise. The songwriter's move is to pick a small set of strict rhymes for the chorus and open up to family and assonance through the verses. Grace rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
