If you absolutely need it to be running all the time, you need to acquire a PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK via PowerManager. This will keep the CPU on all the time, and your program running. Be prepared for a shocking decline in battery life.
I assume your next question will be "How do I make it run as soon as the phone boots?" For that, you'll need to implement a BroadcastReceiver that catches android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED. Your receiver would then launch your service. Once the service starts, you get the wakelock described above, and voila - you're always running. BTW, you'll need to declare permissions for both of those things. Good luck!
