Answer 1

alfred lord tennyson
Tennyson uses a description of putting out to sea as a metaphor for death. Before he died he requested that this poem be placed at the end of each edition of his works. Opening lines: Sunset and evening star, / And one clear call for me! ...

This poem written by Anthony Hecht Afred, is about going to heaven.
The clear call is God calling to him. Crossing the bar is going past the gates of heaven. His Pilot is God. When Afred says, "And may there be no sadness of farewell, When i embark." he is saying that because you are going to heaven, it will be joyous, not sad.

Answer 2

Someone who is about to die.
