"Fear no more the heat o' the sun" does not express Shakespeare's attitude. It expresses the attitude of Arviragus and Guiderius, two characters in the play Cymbeline. Arviragus and Guiderius are in the process of burying and mourning the death of their new young friend Fidele. (Fidele is in fact Imogen in disguise) They address this song to him/her with the consolations that in death there is nothing to fear as there is in life, and that everybody dies sooner or later. Of course, they are the ones who need consoling and they take consolation from it.

It's a song which Shakespeare specifically wrote for this play. It is not a poem.
