Hello,

If you have a case on your phone, remove it and let everything dry out for a few days. Do not try to charge it in the meantime. Then it may work for awhile. Ultimately the phone will need to be replaced due to water damage. See this:

Water and other liquid damage to iPhone or iPod isn't covered by warranty 

Good luck.
