    Dependant on the age of your iPhone 4S it could be the battery is failing.  You could take it to an Apple store or AASP for evaluation.

     

    Also worth trying a re-boot.  Press and Hold the Home and On/Off buttons simultaneously until you see the Apple logo then release.  You will not lose any data.
