The sun is a moderate type G star, and it will continue to burn for about 5 billion years more. As it begins to run out of fuel at that stage, it will become a red giant. Then, the outer atmosphere of the sun will puff away as a planetary nebula, leaving behind a white dwarf core, which will be the end of the line. After many billions of years, the white dwarf will gradually cool, passing through the visible spectrum until it ceases to give off light at all. The final result will be a black dwarf. It will have its gravitational field, but it will no longer glow.
