Heavenly bodies revolve around the Sun, by obeying the Laws of Newtonian Mechanics(Gravity).

All bodies would remain stationary or in unioform(straight line/speed) motion, unless acted upon by a force.

That force is the mass of of the body and the acceleration dies to gravity.

As the Earth has gravity , so does the Sun. The Sun being a more massive object has greater acceleration (gravity). So as the Earth moves in a straight line, the Sun's gravity pulls is in to the Sun. However, these forces are all Balanced . so our forward speed is balanced by the Sun;s gravity, so we don't 'fall into the Sun' , but just go round/orbit the Sun.

What is an orbit around the sun?

An orbit around the sun is that of a heavenly body, such as a planet, that is mdkjhattracted to the gravitational pull from the sun. The sun is the largest object in the solar system so its gravitational pull is the strongest. The heavenly bodies go around the sun not making a circle, but an oval.
