Q: Erasing All Contents and Settings is taking a long time showing circle loading logo

So, I was trying to erase my phone (iPhone 4) because I'm suppose to sell it tomorrow since I have an iPhone 5 and no longer need a 4...  so I tried the "easiest" way with Erasing All Contests from the phone but it's been 3 hours and the circle is still there.

 

Now I've read other places where it says what to do, but my problem is the following my power button does not work at all.  So I can't press Power and Home because it isn't going to do anything.  Should I wait to see if the circle stops? Should I wait to see if the battery dies? is there any way at all to turn it off and try again?

iPhone 4, iOS 6.1.2, Power Button Damaged
