Words that rhyme with Synagogue
For the rhyme search, what matters about synagogue is this: four-syllable, vowel on the centred /ษ/, ending that leaves the vowel hanging open. It's an unremarkable word until the verse asks it to do something. Two readings: as data โ only a handful of strict perfect rhymes survive, family rhymes are simply absent, the assonance pool has more matches than any verse will use; as lyric โ a household-word. Reach for the assonance list whenever the strict pool starts repeating itself.

Why synagogue rhymes the way it does
Synagogue is four-syllable, its rhyme-relevant vowel sitting on the short /ษ/, then it ends on an unbuttoned vowel. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 46 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 69, assonance 4,442, and consonance 201. The empty family column matters less than it looks. Family rhymes are a strict-classifier construct; the songwriter's ear accepts most assonance matches in their place. Writing-tip: don't end every line with the strict rhyme. Use the slant columns at the joints and the strict matches at the seams. Synagogue works hardest when the slant carries the verse and the strict match closes the chorus.
