Flashing purple screen and frozen iPhone 4

When i was using my iphone 4, it froze and then turned black. The screen started flashing purple and then faded into black but not completely off. It won't respond to either the home or lock button and a charger had so effect on it. How do I turn it back on in order to resent it?

iPhone 4, iOS 7.1.2
