You may want to see if it can go into DFU mode and then try restoring. You may want to try a tool like RecBoot or iReb to kick it out of recovery mode. If nothing works, you may want to schedule an appointment at your local Apple Store to see if they can fix it.

IMO if it costs over $100 to get it repaired, I would just get a newer phone since the iPhone 4 is unlikely to get iOS 8 and the 5C and 5S are selling for around $100 with on contract. :)
