「自分を信じ」 , all by itself, is not easy to translate. The closest in nuance would be "Believing oneself".
It mainly has two usages:
1. Use it by itself for a song/poem title.
2. Follow it with another verb. 「自分を信じ行動せよ。」、「自分を信じボールを蹴（ け）った」

Oh yes, this ending of the verb - I wasn´t sure about it, because I know the correct imperative form. That´s why I offered my oppinion under reserve
Sorry for my mistake and thanks for the correction.
