Is it Boromir?
Warrior journeys
By Elvish craft to the sea;
Trespassing redeemed.
He was renowned as a warrior and made his last journey down Anduin in one of the Lorien boats. His "sin" of trying to take the ring was expiated by both his repentence and valiant attempt to save the young hobbits. The fact that the boat made it across the falls and rapids was due either to some great virtue in the boat or as a sign of "grace" ie redemption.
