My phone is stuck on the on off cycle.  I've tried the "recovery mode" steps I found on several websites but it did not work. What do I do??

my phone all of a sudden shut off.  When I tried restarting it, it showed the apple logo then drifted off again.  It has continued this process for over 3 hours now, I have searched several websites for what to do and all have said it is in "recovery mode." I followed the steps listed on those websites and the phone is still doing it.  At one point it showed the "low battery" screen so I plugged it in, it started the on off cycle again.  please help!
