Well, they are being attracted to the sun, but orbit fast enough that they don't fall into the Sun.
The force of gravity keeps planets in orbit. I could add that angular momentum prevents them from falling into the sun, so that is also a part of what keeps them in orbit.
The gravitational force between the sun and each object in the solar system
The Sun's strong gravity keeps all the planets in orbit around it.
the orbit of planets around the Sun in the Solar systemthe orbit of moons around their planets in the Solar system
All the planets in the solar system are kept in orbit by the gravitational pull of the sun. The effect of the other planets and other bodies in the solar system is to change the shape of the orbits slightly but the sun is what keeps them in orbit around the sun.
The planets orbit the Sun. The Sun is at the center of our solar system and does not move.

it keeps it in orbit
the sun because it keeps the planets in orbit and provides heat.

No, they orbit around the Sun. The planets and the Sun are all in our solar system.

The gravity of the Sun keeps the planets in their orbits. They stay in their orbits because there is no other force in the Solar System which can stop them.

It keeps the solar system together because without it we would be floating around. :)
