What was the purpose of religious music in shakespeares era?

Presumably religious music always intends to do the same thing: inspire with religious feeling. Although Shakespeare lived in an era where there was a lot of English secular music composed, religious music was mostly very traditional in the Catholic style. Some English Hymns (especially what are called "verse anthems") were composed for the Anglican service by composers such as William Byrd, Orlando Gibbons, John Bull and Thomas Tomkins.

Who was the composer of the Renaissance?

This question is misdefined. If you believe that the renaissance is a piece of music I have never heard this piece and can not answer this. But if you mean the musical era called the Renaissance (roughly between 1400-1600 A.D) then here goes: There were many composer during the renaissance, the ones who have survived to these days because of their musical qualities composed polyphonic choir music. A few examples of famous renaissance composers are: Orlando di Lasso, Josquin de Prez, Guillame de Machaut, William Byrd, John Dowland. But most of the music teachers agree that THE composer of the renaissance was Giovanni da Palestrina (he lived at the end of the era).
