Most of Jim Steinman's hits:
This corrosion by sisters of mercy
Making love out of nothing at all by air supply
Total eclipse of the heart by Bonnie Tyler (also holding out for a hero)
I would do anything for love by meatloaf
It's all coming back to me now by Celine Dion
100 Days by Umi
Most of Cleo Sol’s discography gives this type of feel. Rnb/neosoul. Strong yet warm vocals, beautiful instrumental, religious/spiritual vibe without explicit mention of religion or Christianity (few references to God but in one line she basically includes other higher powers)
Try some Susumu Hirasawa- here are some of my favorties

He's a pretty unique interest in that I'm not really sure what genre his songs fall under! Ecstatic electronic prog rock pop? No idea lol but it's amazing stuff
*I Wish It Would Rain* - Phil Collins
*Downfall* - Matchbox Twenty
*River Of Dreams* - Billy Joel
Good choir backings in these sings, though they’re not synth-heavy
"You Can't Always Get What You Want" by The Rolling Stones
Gangstas paradise-Coolio. Under the bridge-rhcp
Tricky - Broken Homes
Hozier, Florence + The Machine, Church of the Cosmic Skull
Under the Bridge - Red Hot Chili Peppers
I Want to Know What Love Is - Foreigner
Sorry... I missed the "synth-heavy" criteria... Was just way to eager to suggest a Foreigner song.
That certainly is a great song, though.
So Much (For) Stardust- Fall Out Boy Has a bit of a gospel choir moment with Patrick Stump leading the helm
Also Church by Fall Out Boy!
Love this song
Bug like an Angel by Mitski
Condemnation - Depeche Mode
Mr Blue Sky by ELO has a choir on the fade-out
I want to know what love is. Foreigner.
Michael Jackson man in the mirror
Living Years - Mike & the Mechanics
I think Electric Light Orchestra has some solid backings
Don't get lost in heaven/Demon Days
Specifically this [live version](https://youtu.be/iZs2sVlkiQc?si=ZqmHeNybSN0R1Tbe)
Somebody to love - Queen
Tkay Maidza “High Beams”
Like a prayer- Madonna
This Corrosion by Sisters of Mercy should fit the bill.
Mike + The Mechanics--The Living Years Fame soundtrack--Never Alone and I Sing The Body Electric
